 ## About Me
-Navy veteran with a strong background in IT, sales, and e-commerce. What drew me to cybersecurity was the same curiosity I had as a kid—taking things apart to see how they worked, then putting them back together. That habit evolved into a passion for understanding and securing systems.

 **I believe security professionals shouldn't be confined to a single discipline—true understanding comes from a holistic view of how systems interact. I learn, build, and operate with that mindset every day.**
