I am a cybersecurity professional with over a decade of experience working in information security, risk management, and compliance. I hold industry certifications including CISSP, CISM, CISA, and other security credentials, and I regularly work with real-world security frameworks, audit requirements, and technology environments. In addition to my professional work, I served as a cybersecurity instructor at Rice University for five years, where I taught students foundational and advanced security concepts in a structured academic setting.

I have experience teaching and mentoring both students and working professionals in one-on-one and small group settings. I enjoy helping learners who are preparing for IT and cybersecurity certifications, transitioning into technology careers, or taking college-level cybersecurity courses. My approach focuses on breaking difficult topics into manageable pieces, using practical examples, and making sure students understand the reasoning behind security concepts rather than just memorizing terms. I tailor sessions to each student’s goals, whether that means exam preparation, homework help, or building confidence with technical subjects.

My teaching style is patient, supportive, and structured. I believe students learn best when they feel comfortable asking questions and working through challenges together. Whether you are new to cybersecurity or looking to advance your skills, I aim to provide clear guidance, real-world insight, and steady encouragement to help you succeed.
