About Me

As a Cybersecurity professional with a Bachelor of Science in Cybersecurity from Bradley University, I bring a unique blend of technical expertise, hands-on experience, and a passion for safeguarding digital ecosystems. Certified in CompTIA Security+, Microsoft SC-900, and Okta Basics, I specialize in identity and access management, network security, and penetration testing.

During my academic journey, I led security assessments for local businesses as part of Bradley University's Ethical Hacking program. My team identified critical vulnerabilities, conducted successful social engineering campaigns, and presented actionable remediation strategies to executive stakeholders. These experiences honed my skills in vulnerability management, access control, and delivering strategic insights.

In my internship at Sayers, I contributed to enterprise security infrastructure projects, implementing VMware environments with advanced access controls and deploying Palo Alto firewalls for secure client environments. Additionally, I participated in installing a secure NAS infrastructure and creating a authentication dashboard interface to enhance operational efficiency.

Beyond my professional roles, I maintain an enterprise-grade home security infrastructure, leveraging tools like Bitwarden, ProtonMail, and Ubiquiti networks under zero-trust principles. This ongoing project reflects my commitment to staying at the forefront of cybersecurity innovation.
