What I'm looking for

I seek an entry-level cybersecurity role in a collaborative, learning-focused team where I can apply incident response and cyber resilience skills, work on practical security challenges, and grow through mentorship and hands-on experience.

I am a recent MSc Cybersecurity graduate with practical experience in cyber resilience, incident response, and cybersecurity UX design, supplemented by academic projects using Python for technology management, automation, and data-related tasks. I have a strong foundation in threat analysis, network security, secure software development, algorithms, machine learning, and database systems, and I communicate complex technical concepts clearly to diverse audiences.

I bring proven teamwork, problem-solving, and customer-facing communication skills from academic group projects and professional roles in customer service and IT recruitment. I am passionate about contributing to organizational security and resilience and seeking an entry-level cybersecurity role where I can apply my technical skills and continue to grow professionally.
