Software Engineering senior and cybersecurity enthusiast with
hands-on experience in IT support, software development, and
cybersecurity. Skilled in network security, vulnerability
assessment, and penetration testing, I’ve built a home lab using
tools like Kali Linux and Nmap to strengthen my threat detection
and risk mitigation abilities. Notably, I conducted a
vulnerability assessment of Northwestern College’s network using
NIST frameworks, OpenVAS, and Wireshark to identify and address
security vulnerabilities.
As a bilingual (English/Spanish) student-athlete, I bring
discipline, teamwork, and strong communication to collaborative
cybersecurity projects. I’m excited to contribute to innovative,
secure solutions while growing within the industry.
