About Me

Cybersecurity & IT Support Analyst

Growing up in a tech-savvy Gen Z household and inspired by my engineer father, I developed an early passion for technology that led me to earn a B.Eng. in Information Technology and an MSc in Cybersecurity (Distinction) from the University of Chester. My journey includes hands-on experience in IT support, mobile device configuration, and network troubleshooting during my internship at Shreya Infocom, where I handled 15–20 tickets daily in a fast-paced startup. Exposure to recurring cyber challenges deepened my interest in security, which I explored through modules in Digital Forensics, Penetration Testing, and Software Exploitation. My projects ranged from developing a secure Android app to conducting vulnerability research, while volunteering with WiCyS at the National Cybersecurity Show showcased my passion for awareness, diversity, and public engagement in cyber. I thrive at the intersection of user support and security—curious, collaborative, and committed to making tech safer for all.
