What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters growth, values collaboration, and emphasizes cybersecurity.

I am an ICT Officer with hands-on experience in ICT systems support and information security within a global environment. My strong foundation in computer science allows me to proactively diagnose and resolve ICT issues while safeguarding organizational systems. I am dedicated to enhancing system security through effective monitoring, threat analysis, and incident response.

During my internship at Save the Children International, I utilized various cybersecurity tools, including CrowdStrike EDR and Microsoft Defender, to protect endpoints and analyze security incidents. My ability to collaborate with IT teams and communicate effectively has enabled me to contribute significantly to the organization's cybersecurity posture. I am eager to leverage my technical expertise to ensure the secure and efficient operation of ICT systems.
