Additional Information

I embarked on my cybersecurity journey at just 14 years old, driven by a passion for understanding and protecting digital environments. As a self-taught practitioner, I immersed myself in network analysis, vulnerability assessment, and system hardening on Linux platforms, over time I’ve gained hands-on experience with key tools like Wireshark, Nmap, Burp Suite, and Metasploit, performing threat detection, incident response, and penetration testing across diverse environments.

My freelance work has allowed me to apply security best practices in real-world projects, from configuring firewalls and SIEM integrations to conducting ethical hacking engagements. I’ve studied frameworks such as ISO/IEC 27001 and OWASP Top 10 to guide my methodologies and ensure compliance.

Curiosity and discipline fuel my growth. I’m committed to continuous learning, community engagement, and sharing knowledge—because for me, cybersecurity isn’t just a career; it’s a mission to safeguard our digital world. Willing to share my journey and help or mentor others learn about cybersecurity career opporunities and pathways.
