Defending Digital Infrastructures

About Me

I'm a cybersecurity professional with a strong background in AI-driven security solutions, network defense, and ethical hacking. As a graduate from the University of Connecticut specializing in Cybersecurity, Crime, and Justice, I've worked on cutting-edge projects, including developing an AI chatbot for UConn using Google's T5 model.

Beyond technical expertise, I'm passionate about building a strong cybersecurity community. Whether through mentoring peers, leading workshops, or collaborating on innovative solutions, I believe that knowledge-sharing and teamwork are key to staying ahead of evolving threats. My goal is to contribute to a safer digital world through both innovation and community engagement.
