Cybersecurity Specialist

I am a detail-oriented and motivated cybersecurity-focused professional who is pursuing a full-time role where I can apply my interpersonal skills, time management, and problem-solving abilities. I am eager to contribute to a secure and resilient cyber environment while continuing to grow professionally.

I have hands-on experience with network security protocols, firewall management, and security awareness practices. I am comfortable working with tools and environments such as Wireshark, Ubuntu, and Kali Linux, and I value accuracy, confidentiality, and attention to detail in every task I take on.

Alongside my cybersecurity background, I currently work as a pharmacy technician, where I support high-volume prescription processing and maintain strict standards for safety, organization, and compliance. This experience has strengthened my teamwork, communication, and ability to perform under pressure.

I am also experienced in workflow optimization, HIPAA compliance, phishing awareness, and vulnerability assessment. I enjoy learning quickly, adapting to new environments, and contributing positively to team success.

My education includes a Bachelor of Science in Cybersecurity from Lewis University and an Associate of Applied Science in Cyber Security from Joliet Junior College. I have also completed several professional qualifications and certificates related to cybersecurity and IT support.

I am looking for an opportunity where I can build on my technical foundation, support secure operations, and continue developing my skills in cybersecurity and information protection.
