Internships in Yokosuka, 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.
