About Me

I'm a Junior Cybersecurity Analyst based in Nairobi, Kenya, pursuing a BSc in Information Security and Forensics at KCA University (graduating April 2026). I hold Cisco certifications in Ethical Hacking, Network Security, and CCNA, and I recently completed a Cybersecurity Attachment at the National Treasury of Kenya.

At the Treasury I contributed to VPN configuration, firewall rules, endpoint security, and LAN support for IFMIS users. I also participated in enterprise deployments of Cisco Umbrella and Java whitelisting. I'm hands-on with tools like Wireshark, Nmap, Metasploit, and Autopsy, and I document everything so my projects serve as reproducible learning resources.
