I am a U.S. Navy veteran currently pursuing my bachelor’s degree in Cybersecurity at Old Dominion University. I served 10 years in the Navy as a Machinist Mate, including working with nuclear propulsion systems aboard an aircraft carrier. My military experience helped me develop discipline, teamwork, attention to detail, and problem-solving skills. After leaving the Navy, I decided to pursue a career in technology. My goal is to continue building my technical knowledge and hands-on-experience so I can eventually work in the cybersecurity field. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Outside of school and my career goals, family is extremely important to me. I enjoy spending time with my family, fishing, traveling, puzzles, and learning new things. I also enjoy technology and finding new ways to challenge myself. I believe having a balance between my personal life and professional goals is important, and I look forward to continuing to grow in both areas.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Professional and Academic Interest I am a U.S. Navy veteran currently pursuing my bachelor’s degree in Cybersecurity at Old Dominion University.
