What I'm looking for

I’m seeking an entry-level role in networking or cybersecurity where I can apply hands-on lab experience, learn from mentors, and grow technical skills in a collaborative team environment.

I am an aspiring network and cybersecurity technician pursuing an A.S. in Computer Networking & Cybersecurity with hands-on training from Cisco Networking Academy.

I have practical experience deploying and configuring Ubuntu servers and Wazuh SIEM for log collection, intrusion detection, FIM, and automated responses, and I routinely use tools like Cisco Packet Tracer and Wireshark.

My networking projects include VLAN design, trunking, inter-VLAN routing, ACLs, DHCP, NAT/PAT, and troubleshooting with Cisco IOS CLI on both simulators and real hardware.

I bring strong teamwork and communication skills from customer-facing hospitality work, and I’m motivated to apply technical skills in entry-level network or cybersecurity roles where I can grow professionally.
