I am a Senior at Old Dominion University. I will receive a bachelor\u2019s degree in cybersecurity in December of 2024. I grew up in Stafford, Virginia, with my two parents, Gail and Walter Craig, who have always supported me in all of my undertakings, as well as my brother and sister, from whom I have learned many life skills. In high school, I was a member of the National Honors Society (NHS), competed in national science fairs, participated in a few volunteer opportunities, and was captain of the cheerleading team for three years in a row.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">How did I get interested in cybersecurity?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">I was in high school trying to figure out what my college major would be. I took a lot of tests, but the results were things I wasn\u2019t interested in. I was looking through descriptions of majors and potential jobs and couldn\u2019t seem to find anything that piqued my interest until I came across ethical hacking. I love technology, particularly my computer, and I\u2019ve always been concerned about my personal information being stolen or hacked. When I learned that there was a job where I could stay one step ahead of cybercriminals by beating them at their own game (hacking), but in a positive way that benefited society, I jumped at the chance. I was immediately intrigued and have remained so ever since.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">What are my goals?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>My goal is to finish college and earn a bachelor\u2019s degree in Cybersecurity while learning technical skills like hacking, problem-solving, and programming. Then I plan to shift my focus to ethical hacking and study for the CompTIA Certified Ethical Hacker professional certification (CEH). In terms of long-term goals, I hope to become an ethical hacker and land a great job where I can put everything I\u2019ve learned to good use and do what I\u2019m truly interested in, which is working alongside companies in improving their security situations.<\/p>\n<hr \/><hr \/>\n<h2 class=\"p1\">Personal Narrative Essay\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!selectors.core.file.hasPdfPreview\" hidden class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/janae\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/36565\/2024\/07\/Personal-Narrative-Essay-1.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:600px\" aria-label=\"Embed of Personal-Narrative-Essay-1.\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-d7c9fa7d-d924-4d35-a226-2aba10b22885\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/janae\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/36565\/2024\/07\/Personal-Narrative-Essay-1.pdf\">Personal-Narrative-Essay-1<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/janae\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/36565\/2024\/07\/Personal-Narrative-Essay-1.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-d7c9fa7d-d924-4d35-a226-2aba10b22885\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Who am I?
