About

A little about me

I’m pursuing a B.S. in Cybersecurity at Rochester Institute of Technology. I’m especially interested in understanding how systems and networks behave under normal and malicious conditions, then documenting the evidence clearly.

I’m building toward cybersecurity internships and early-career roles where I can investigate technical problems and work directly with systems, network data, and security tools.
