Hello everyone my name is Sahmer Ismael, and I am from a small town called Bealeton Virginia, which is located in Fauquier county. I am a Graduate cybersecurity student at Old Dominion University. And looking towards completing my masters degree, by the spring of 2026. When it comes to knowing a little about me, I am a highly motivated, determined, and hard working individual who looks to continue progressing in the field of cybersecurity throughout my career, as it precedes to advance. My main goal upon graduating with my masters degree , is to work with the federal government, and to continue developing my skills to defend the nations cyber realm, from malicious threat actors, through a defensive security role. I am also a member of the CyberCorps Scholarship for service (SFS), which is a prestigious award, that displays my commitment to further serve the government upon graduation.
