Everyday creates a new challenge. In my current role as a log auditor and data analyst for CTS/ 4D these challenges can become complex. As a veteran, my military training was put to the test and because of those test I am able to calmly work under pressure to handle these complex challenges. I have never stopped wanting to learn or better myself. At 40 years old, I will graduate in November 2022 with Bachelor's degree in criminal justice. The concentration of that degree is in computer forensics. This complements my Associates of Science degree in which the main concentration was applied science. My next educational challenge will be focusing on completing my Master's degree in computer science with an anticipating start date in January of 2022 and a graduation date of 2024. The ComTIA security +, network +, and CySA are also on my schedule to complete before 2023. I have studied for all 3 exams for months off and on. The material seems pretty common sense, but certifications are needed even with a degree for meaningful employment, plus I enjoy learning.
