My Story

I'm a cybersecurity professional with a strong focus on Security Operations Center (SOC) analysis and SIEM implementation. My journey in cybersecurity began with a curiosity about how systems can be protected from ever-evolving threats.

Currently, I specialize in deploying and managing SIEM solutions like Wazuh and Microsoft Sentinel, enabling organizations to detect, analyze, and respond to security incidents effectively. I'm passionate about blue team operations and building robust security monitoring infrastructures.

I believe in continuous learning and hands-on experience. Through platforms like TryHackMe (where I earned my SAL1 certification) and home lab projects, I constantly expand my skills and stay updated with the latest security trends and techniques.
