Available to hire
I’m a cybersecurity and digital forensics professional with a Master’s degree and 3+ years of experience spanning network engineering, software development, and security-focused delivery. I’ve worked with organizations such as IEEE and Cisco Networking Academy, building secure applications, supporting coding quality through reviews, and improving network reliability through routing/switching optimization.
I enjoy combining practical engineering with security best practices—using tools like Wireshark and Burp Suite, and applying risk-aware thinking across technical work. With CCNP and Cisco CyberOps Associate certifications and strong proficiency in Python, JavaScript, and networking fundamentals, I’m focused on protecting systems, strengthening governance and compliance (GRC), and turning complex requirements into clear, reliable outcomes.
