My background is in communications, where I advanced from a supporting role as a Junior PR Manager to fully owning a company’s internal and external corporate communications. After a few years in the field, I am now my own boss, offering my PR services as a freelancer to selected clients.
However, PR is not my only passion, so I recently decided to switch careers and turn my long-term interest into a profession - so now I am becoming a professional hacker.
Sounds too easy? Well, it isn’t. It requires courage, motivation, dedication, and an inexhaustible amount of perseverance. But I love a good challenge, prefer to shake things up than have them get rusty, and am not afraid to get my hands dirty. Which is why I am regularly toying around with my home lab, solving CTFs on THM and HTB, or helping friends and relatives with IT issues. These self-taught activities already gave me a solid understanding of Windows and Linux systems as well as network and application attacks, a general idea of vulnerability management and threat analysis, and a fair amount of experience with tools such as Wireshark, Nmap, Metasploit, Gobuster, Burp Suite, etc.
Through the IronHack Cybersecurity program, I am deepening this expertise and enriching it with theoretical and practical knowledge on networking basics, network & application security, incident handling, forensics, malware analysis, risk management and threat intelligence. By dedicating myself to this program full-time, I am able to perform a rapid, yet robust transition into the cybersecurity domain, and look forward to further putting my newly acquired expertise into practice.
I also fiercely keep up with the newest TTPs in the cybersecurity domain, so send me a message if you want to talk cyber!
