What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role in cybersecurity where I can leverage my skills in penetration testing and digital forensics, contribute to innovative projects, and grow within a collaborative team environment.

As a Security Engineer with over two years of hands-on experience, I specialize in penetration testing, digital forensics, and vulnerability management. I am a Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH Master) with a deep understanding of security frameworks such as OWASP, NIST, and ISO 27001. My expertise lies in identifying, remediating, and reporting critical vulnerabilities across systems and web applications, ensuring robust security measures are in place.

Throughout my career, I have successfully conducted thorough penetration testing on multiple web applications, collaborating with development teams to enhance security protocols and improve overall system resilience. My commitment to cybersecurity extends to educating others, as I have delivered workshops on ethical hacking and mentored over 100 students in practical cybersecurity training. I am passionate about staying ahead of emerging threats and continuously improving my skills in this ever-evolving field.
