What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters growth in cybersecurity, values collaboration, and offers opportunities to tackle real-world security challenges.

I am a motivated and detail-oriented Program Coordinator transitioning into cybersecurity, equipped with a strong foundation in project management, vendor compliance, and technical systems. I hold a certificate from the ASU Cybersecurity Bootcamp, where I gained hands-on experience in penetration testing, threat analysis, and network security. My ability to analyze data, resolve complex problems, and communicate effectively across teams positions me well for an entry-level role in cybersecurity.

Throughout my training, I have successfully led projects such as a penetration testing simulation and an incident response drill, where I utilized tools like Kali Linux, Splunk, and Wireshark. These experiences not only honed my technical skills but also enhanced my understanding of cybersecurity vulnerabilities and incident response strategies. I am eager to leverage my technical and transferable skills to contribute to a dynamic cybersecurity team.
