What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers opportunities for growth, a collaborative team environment, and the chance to tackle complex security challenges.

I am an organized and dependable SOC Analyst with extensive experience in IT security, engineering, and retail. Currently, I lead a team at Cybanetix, where I have established IT investigative practices and respond to security incidents effectively. My hands-on experience with SOAR and endpoint security technologies, such as Siemplify and Sentinel One, has equipped me with the skills to identify and mitigate potential security risks.

With a first-class degree in Computing (Networking, Security & Forensics), I have a solid foundation in technical knowledge and practical experience. My previous roles have allowed me to develop strong communication skills, enabling me to liaise with clients and train team members effectively. I am passionate about enhancing security operations and continuously improving team performance through constructive feedback and training.
