Digital Forensics and Cybersecurity student at Eastern Kentucky University, focused on defensive security, incident response readiness, vulnerability assessment, identity review, and GRC documentation.
I am seeking cybersecurity internship or entry-level opportunities in SOC, GRC, digital forensics, vulnerability management, identity, or security operations. I like projects that turn security work into something practical: a tabletop exercise someone can run, a scanner that explains system posture, or a risk assessment that helps a team decide what to fix first.
