I am a balanced person who has worked in various roles in retail, as a host, and as a self-employed child care provider. Some of my balanced experience includes being an excellent communicator with good organizational, problem-solving, conflict resolution skills, customer service, and management. I have a balanced approach to work and life. I am looking for a job where I can use my balanced skills and experience.

I want to start my new career path in cybersecurity. I chose this career path because of the high demand for cybersecurity professionals which currently remains at an all-time high, with companies, individuals and industries requiring ongoing protection from cyber criminals. And with cybersecurity job demand at its peak, there is an abundant variety of different career paths in cybersecurity to choose from.

I have just complete several courses in cybersecurity and have earned myself a professional certificate. I have gained much knowledge in the areas of SQL, Linux, Python, Pandas & Numpy, just to name a few.

I wish to receive a job as an intern to gain some experience in my new career field. I have a passion for a work environment that has a lot to do with customer service, problem-solving, and great teamwork.
