[05] ABOUT // PROFILE
Professional Journey
Backed by a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology and over 20 years of hands-on IT infrastructure experience, I have issued a formal directive to transition that foundation into cybersecurity operations — applying systems administration, network architecture, and hardware-level expertise to offensive and defensive security work. Every engagement documented in this console follows the same principle two decades in production environments taught me: understand how a system actually runs before you decide how it breaks.
