What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can apply cybersecurity fundamentals and business development skills, grow technical expertise (CompTIA Security+), and contribute to security strategy and client-focused solutions in a collaborative team.

I am a cybersecurity-focused professional with hands-on training from a cybersecurity bootcamp and practical experience translating technical solutions into business value. I combine threat analysis, incident response knowledge, and security tool familiarity with strong communication and customer-facing experience.

At Protexxa I worked as a Cybersecurity Analyst (Business Development Representative/Sales Specialist), developing partnership strategies, analysing market trends, and delivering product demonstrations that connected technical capabilities to client needs. My background includes hands-on familiarity with tools such as Wireshark and Nmap and foundational experience in phishing awareness, network monitoring, and threat intelligence.

Earlier roles in retail and customer service strengthened my ability to manage transactions accurately, maintain inventory, and deliver high-quality client interactions under pressure. I have experience with basic IT troubleshooting, social media management, and Microsoft Office Suite, which complement my cybersecurity training.

I am pursuing CompTIA Security+ to formalize and expand my technical credentials and am motivated to join a team where I can apply and grow both my cybersecurity expertise and business development acumen to protect digital environments and drive security-aware partnerships.
