Over the summer, I worked as a front-end development intern where I focused on building responsive and user-friendly web interfaces. I used HTML and CSS to structure and style pages, added interactivity with JavaScript, and leveraged Bootstrap to speed up design and ensure mobile compatibility. I collaborated with the development team to turn UI/UX designs into clean, functional code, and gained hands-on experience debugging, testing, and refining layouts across different browsers and devices.

About

I am an enthusiastic and committed cybersecurity learner, actively building a strong foundation in Application Security, SOC operations, and Penetration Testing, with a growing emphasis on defensive security practices. While I am still early in my professional journey, I am deeply focused on developing hands-on, practical skills that align with real-world security operations and industry standards. I am particularly interested in SOC workflows, including alert triage, SIEM fundamentals, incident response processes, and threat intelligence. I aim to understand not just what vulnerabilities exist, but why they happen and how to prevent them. Let’s connect if you work in cybersecurity, are learning defensively like me, or are building secure systems that matter.
