Currently I am enrolled into WGU's Cybersecurity BA program where I am continuing my education into this IT field. I am striving to graduate by July 1, 2024.

In May 2023, graduated from FRCC's Cybersecurity Program. Along with the AAS of Cybersecurity, also I graduated with with three other certificates as follows: Network Technician, Networking Basics, and Cybersecurity Fundamentals. Here I have learned the foundations of Cybersecurity and want to further pursue my career into this area of work. This education has provided me with understanding of firewall engineering, and offensive/defensive cybersecurity tactics.
