Teaching Assistant for the Cybersecurity Certificate program @ OSU
Helping to guide aspiring cybersecurity professionals into today's cybersecurity/IT workforce. This is my second cohort working as a TA for OSU and I'm thrilled to be working with the same instructor. My job is to support his lesson plans with resources, definitions, and links and to help the students get the most out of the material. I help the students troubleshoot technical issues and answer their questions about the material and about cybersecurity in general.

I delight in assisting the instructor with daily lesson plans, technical and curriculum support for the students, and grading homework. (well, perhaps I don't exactly *delight* in grading homework... lol.)
My favorite part is the feeling I get when I'm able to help a student with a particular problem and they have that ah ha moment... priceless.

About
I am currently working as a teaching assistant for the Cybersecurity certificate program at OSU and I love watching the students as they have their Aha! moments and strive to give them all the information they might need to become solid security professionals.
I have worked in IT for high-profile organizations including Lotus Tours Ltd. and Louis Vuitton and I believe that effective relationships are built through trust and integrity. The key qualities that make me who I am include loyalty, determination, and dedication, combined with a thirst for knowledge and a desire to help where I can.
I love troubleshooting using out-of-the-box thinking and am dedicated to making this world a little more secure than it was yesterday.
