Passionate Cybersecurity Instructor

Anthony P.

I am here because I love to each, I am not here for the money. I am a cybersecurity professional specializing in application security and penetration testing, with a strong foundation in teaching complex technical concepts in a clear and practical way. I am currently pursuing my Master’s degree (expected completion by the end of Fall 2026), which continues to deepen my expertise in security and software systems.

My teaching experience includes both structured and independent instruction. I previously worked as a part-time instructor with Trilogy Education, where I taught technical material to adult learners in a structured, classroom-style environment. In addition, I designed and led a 4-hour cybersecurity workshop at Cactus Con 2026, where I guided participants through hands-on exercises and real-world scenarios. These experiences have helped me develop an engaging teaching style that balances theory with practical application.

I have experience working with a range of learners, primarily adult students and career-switchers, but I adapt my approach based on the student’s background and goals. My teaching style focuses on breaking down complex topics into manageable steps, using real-world examples, and encouraging active problem-solving rather than passive learning.

I believe the best way to learn technical subjects is by doing. Whether we are working through coding problems, security concepts, or foundational material, I aim to build confidence and critical thinking skills so students can apply what they learn independently.
