As a proud Marine Corps veteran transitioning into the field of cybersecurity, I am currently pursuing an associate's degree in Cybersecurity and Information Assurance while enhancing my skills through various industry certifications.
At Accenture Federal Services, I focus on application security for SAP 4/HANA. With over 10 years of experience in law enforcement and a bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice, I have honed my security and investigative skills. My law degree further enriches my understanding of the legal implications of cybersecurity, aligning with my dedication to staying at the forefront of cybersecurity technologies and practices.
I am deeply committed to continuous learning and community service, actively seeking opportunities to contribute and give back. Passionate about education and mentorship, I use my experiences to inspire and guide future professionals in the field.
