About
I am a self-driven Information Technology student at Towson University with a strong passion for cybersecurity and cloud security. I hold the CompTIA Security+ certification and completed the Tek4Tomorrow Cybersecurity Bootcamp, where I gained hands-on experience in vulnerability management, incident response, and secure system configuration.
As a Cybersecurity Project Manager Intern at Pass IT On (PITO), I lead a team of interns, using Agile methods to coordinate tasks, improve deliverable tracking, and foster collaboration in a remote-first environment. I enjoy building real-world projects that strengthen my skills in network defense, SIEM analysis, and system administration, and I am committed to making a meaningful impact as a future Cybersecurity Analyst.

- Outside the classroom
Throughout high school, I actively participated in a variety of activities that allowed me to develop diverse skills and make meaningful contributions. As the lead of the boys' department in the Chesapeake Math and IT Academy Dance Team, I performed at school pep rallies, showcasing teamwork and leadership. My involvement in Oracle AI enhanced my understanding of technology's role in improving decision-making and business efficiency. As a manager at S.B. Servers, I honed leadership, patience, and management skills. Through the African Student Association, I celebrated and shared my cultural heritage through performances and events. Volunteering with organizations like Hearts and Home and FBB - BWI enabled me to organize files, support sports programs, and assist in planning events. Additionally, my participation in the Key Club involved connecting students with service opportunities and fostering community engagement. These experiences have not only enriched my high school years but have also prepared me for similar roles in college.
