About

Professional summary

I am an aspiring cybersecurity and information systems professional with a Bachelor of Applied Technology from the University of Maryland Global Campus. My academic background includes information systems, networking fundamentals, cybersecurity basics, and data analysis.

I have hands-on experience analyzing network traffic with Wireshark, including DNS queries, HTTPS traffic, TLS filtering, and client-server communications. I am interested in using technical analysis to identify connectivity issues, understand network behavior, and support secure operations.

My cybersecurity coursework and projects have developed my understanding of threat identification, data protection, access controls, insider threats, and security risk assessment. I can communicate technical risks and actionable recommendations clearly in professional business formats.

I also bring professional experience as a lifeguard, pool manager, and pool operator, where I make sound decisions under pressure, follow strict safety procedures, coordinate with teams, and provide clear support to customers. This experience has strengthened my accountability, attention to detail, emergency response, and communication skills.

I am seeking an entry-level opportunity in cybersecurity, technical support, networking, or information systems where I can apply my foundational technical knowledge, analytical mindset, and commitment to operational safety and security.
