I currently have my A+/Sec+/CEH with a TS/SCI/Poly Clearance and working towards my OSCP.I am fast and curious learner always looking for my next challenge to overcome. I have a wide breadth of knowledge/experience in many areas such as software development, system administration, cyber security, malware analysis, and cyber operations (Offensive/Defensive). My current goal is to find a remote entry-junior level pen testing opportunity with opportunities to prove myself, growth inside the organization, and that will utilize my analytical mindset/problem solving abilities. I am very versatile and can work well in any team dynamic. I have tackled various successful projects using technologies I have little to no experience in. I am always up for a challenge and I truly believe that with enough time, effort, and man power, all problems have solutions.
