I am from Texas. I am a United States Air Force veteran, where I served as a Security Forces Officer, specializing in Base Defense Operations. Upon my retirement I graduated from the University of Texas at El Paso majoring in criminal justice with a minor in digital forensics. I then completed technical school focusing on cyber security and obtained my CEH (certified ethical hacker), Splunk Core User, and CompTIA Security+ certifications. I currently hold a position in the top 3% on the Tryhackme website, with experience in Kali Linux, Microsoft Windows, Metasploit framework, and CompTIA.
