Security Professional | SOC | GRC | Penetration Tester

I’m a security-driven IT professional with over 10+ years of hands-on experience in information technology, phyiscal and information security. My journey began since a young child breaking down and rebuilding PCs to eventually attending a technical vocational high school where I built a strong technical foundation, which I later expanded by pursuing a degree in Cybersecurity and Information Assurance from Western Governors University (WGU).

Over the years, I’ve developed a deep interest in Security Operations, Incident Response, and Risk Management—paired with a growing passion for offensive security disciplines like OSINT, social engineering, phishing simulations, and covert entry. I spend a lot of time practicing my skills in CTFs such as Overthewire, TryHackMe and Hackthebox. I thrive in environments where I can blend analytical thinking with creativity to uncover threats, assess vulnerabilities, and strengthen defenses.

Whether it’s configuring SIEMs like Splunk and Sentinel, running internal phishing campaigns, or investigating real-world alerts, I bring curiosity, adaptability, and a mission-driven mindset to everything I do in the field of security both physical and cyber.
