What I'm looking for

I seek an entry-level cybersecurity role applying network security, digital forensics, and vulnerability assessment skills, with mentorship, collaborative teams, and opportunities for hands-on growth.

I am a focused computer security and forensics student pursuing a BSc in Computer Security and Forensics with certifications including IBM Cybersecurity Fundamentals, CISCO Introduction to Cybersecurity, CEH training, and TryHackMe experience. I specialize in network security, digital forensics, vulnerability assessment, and continuous learning.

During a practical attachment I supported ICT users, performed regular backups, deployed endpoint protection, and used tools such as Wireshark, Nmap, Power BI and Tableau to analyze data and improve operations. I am dedicated to hands-on security work, membership in a university ISACA student group, and growing through challenging, real-world projects.
