About

As a graduate student in Cybersecurity, I recently completed a Cyber Guardian Internship at ISC2 New Jersey, USA, where I conducted risk assessments for a nonprofit organization and recommended actionable mitigation strategies. This hands-on experience built upon my 10+ years of professional experience in networking, system administration, and IT support, where I designed and managed enterprise networks, implemented security controls, and supported hundreds of users. Combined with my graduate-level coursework, this background has equipped me with the skills and knowledge to contribute to roles aligned with Governance, Risk & Compliance, Network & Cloud Security, Security Architecture, Security Operations, and Cyberthreat Intelligence, enabling me to safeguard organizational assets and mitigate evolving cyber threats effectively.
