Here’s why I believe I'd be a perfect fit for the position:

First, I’ve always been intellectually curious about comprehending how thing work in the Cybersecurity sector. As a Cybersecurity Analyst at McAfee, I wanted to push myself and understand each specific of my day to day.

Before starting my career, I've obtained a Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. These academic skills were the foundations which helped me to become the go-to person to ask about analyze security alerts and mitigate vulnerabilities.

Second, I have plenty of experience work with the incident response team to address security breaches. At McAfee, I’ve managed delicate situations related to ensure compliance with cybersecurity standards and regulations and been successful at meeting approaching deadlines where I had to think quickly on my feet.
