Internships in Aichi, Japan

I completed a six-month cybersecurity internship with Cyberon where I gained hands-on experience in VAPT and SOC operations. The internship focused on practical learning using industry-relevant security tools and methodologies. I worked on multiple projects related to vulnerability assessment, security monitoring, and basic incident response, which helped strengthen my technical foundation. The exposure to standard cybersecurity practices improved my understanding of skills required for professional and global cybersecurity environments. Overall, the internship was a valuable learning experience that enhanced my confidence and readiness for future cybersecurity opportunities.

Coming from a small town in Michigan I had never traveled outside the Midwest prior to joining the Marine Corps. This presented me with an opportunity work in and visit parts of Asia, like Japan and Korea. Since leaving The Corps I have since visited several counties including Paris (twice), Johannesburg, South Africa and Scotland on a study abroad trip. I think it important that we see the world to appreciate how other parts of the planet operate and for me to see how other countries view the United States. I have gotten mixed reviews by the way. What I have learned to appreciate the country of my birth and that we are not all that different.

I am a seasoned cybersecurity professional with a diverse international background, having spent approximately five years studying and gaining valuable experience in France and continuing my academic journey at Cambrian College in Canada. During my time in France, I successfully completed a Master's degree in Innovation Strategies and Statistics, equipping myself with a strong analytical foundation. Subsequently, I extended my expertise by working in various capacities, notably as a Junior Statistician at Alstom Transport in Paris, where I efficiently managed and analyzed large datasets for railway signalization systems. Additionally, I undertook a role as an Adjunct Lecturer at Azerbaijan Economic University, contributing to the academic landscape in Baku, Azerbaijan, for two years. My commitment to excellence and passion for cybersecurity led me to work as a Cyber Security Network Scanner at SUMAKS.COM in Baku and later in Moscow, where I conducted vulnerability assessments and implemented security measures to safeguard critical information infrastructure. Currently, I am based in Canada, contributing my skills and knowledge as a Cyber Security Manager at DAV20TECH, fortifying networks against unauthorized access and cyber threats. This rich and varied international experience has uniquely shaped my approach to cybersecurity, providing me with a global perspective and a comprehensive skill set that I am eager to leverage in contributing to cybersecurity initiatives worldwide.
