Interests
One of my core interests is cybersecurity, where I’m committed to learning and growing in a field that protects people and organizations in the digital world. I’m fascinated by problem-solving, technology, and the ever-evolving challenges of keeping systems secure.
​
Outside of cybersecurity, I’m deeply passionate about autism support and advocacy. As a proud mother to my incredible son, who has autism, I’ve experienced firsthand the transformative power of therapy, technology, and community in helping children communicate and thrive. Supporting other families and raising awareness about autism is close to my heart, and I’m always eager to share insights and resources that might help others on a similar journey.
​
In addition, I love exploring topics related to mental and emotional wellness, especially in ways that inspire others to take care of themselves, no matter their circumstances. From self-care strategies to connecting with others through shared experiences, I aim to uplift and encourage people to prioritize their well-being.
