MSU Denver Graduate • Available for full-time roles
Computer Science Graduate
I specialize in Networking, Cybersecurity, and Software Development building tools in Java, Python, and Go, with Flask/FastAPI backends, semantic HTML + Tailwind CSS on the front end, and Bash/Linux Automation with SQL for data work. My projects span firewalls, intrusion detection, secure file transfer, and vulnerability analysis, grounded in MSU Denver’s CS fundamentals across algorithms & data structures, operating systems, databases, and computer networks.
Python-based firewall using Scapy to inspect and filter packets by rule sets with logging and monitoring.
Scans hosts for open ports/services and highlights potentially weak configurations.
This project demonstrates how to build a secure, VLAN-aware home network with a Raspberry Pi firewall and a dedicated Raspberry Pi NAS.
I’m a recent Computer Science graduate from MSU Denver and a U.S. Army combat veteran (3rd BCT, Rakkasans), former Forward Observer (13F). I enjoy building networking tools and security-focused solutions. My interests include intrusion detection, packet analysis, and secure systems design. I value clear communication, version control discipline, and measurable impact. Previously held Top Secret (TS) clearance (inactive).
