I am 24 years old, with a strong background in cybersecurity, an insatiable desire to learn new things continuously, and a passion for developing software and designing supporting infrastructure environments.For professional experience, I have spent three years as a penetration tester and one year in Help Desk support. I pursued an Information Systems Security degree at Cosumnes River College for two years and have been a tech enthusiast since childhood, developing scripts and tools since 2014.I have always had a strong passion for diving into new things and facing unknown challenges to expand my own knowledge base. While certifications and on-the-job experience have been a good source of exposure and education, I believe creating my own exposure and experience in new areas and projects allow me to expand my knowledge even more exponentially.Currently, I work as a Security Consultant at DeepSeas, where I specialize in advanced adversarial simulation (red team) services. This includes conducting remote and onsite breach simulations and insider threat assessments. I design and manage all red team infrastructure for our department and create custom malware/tooling for operations using C.As for a day-to-day basis, I prepare and deliver technical reports and conduct briefings to technical, management, and executive-level staff, ensuring clear communication of findings and strategies.
