What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role in cybersecurity that fosters growth and innovation.

I'm a dedicated cybersecurity professional with a strong background in system and application security. My experience includes performing penetration testing and vulnerability assessments on web applications, where I successfully identified and mitigated security risks aligned with the OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities. I have a solid foundation in various tools such as Burp Suite, Metasploit, and Nmap, which I utilize to enhance security measures.

In addition to my security expertise, I have a background in system and network administration, managing Windows Server environments and ensuring robust network security. My analytical skills were honed during my time as a Data Analyst, where I transformed and visualized data to support business objectives. I am currently pursuing a Master's degree in Computer Science with a focus on IT Security at the University of Passau, further solidifying my knowledge and skills in this critical field.
