What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to leverage my legal and cybersecurity skills while contributing to a team focused on data protection and compliance.

I am a dynamic and dedicated cybersecurity professional with a robust academic foundation in law and specialized training in cybersecurity. My journey has equipped me with a unique blend of legal expertise and technical knowledge, allowing me to navigate the complexities of cybersecurity with a comprehensive understanding of legal frameworks.

Throughout my career, I have engaged in various roles that have honed my skills in data protection, legal drafting, and compliance. My recent internship involved auditing privacy policies to ensure compliance with the Nigeria Data Protection Act, showcasing my commitment to upholding data integrity and security. I am passionate about continuous learning and staying updated with the latest trends in cybersecurity, which I believe is crucial in this ever-evolving field.
