}Cybersecurity isn't just what I studied; it's what I've been hands-on with.
From mapping 200+ hosts and uncovering critical vulnerabilities to validating real attack paths using tools like Burp Suite and Metasploit, I enjoy thinking like an attacker while building like a defender.
eJPT-certified and backed by a Master's in Cyber Security, I've worked across vulnerability assessment, security testing, detection workflows, and automation. I've built Python scripts to streamline alerts, integrated threat intelligence into SIEM dashboards, and helped teams focus on risks that actually matter.
Before diving fully into security, I worked in IT support — which means I understand how real enterprise environments behave when things go wrong. That operational awareness now drives how I approach monitoring, incident response, and risk reduction.
