About Me
I am currently a 21-year-old, full-time graduate student at Western Governors University—diligently pursuing an MS in Cybersecurity and Information Assurance.
At Weber State University, I completed my undergraduate degree in just under three years—with no incoming credits—undertaking heavy course loads, using summers, and my free time to propel myself forward.
In addition to a rigorous, year-round course schedule, I worked ahead on WGU’s MS program through certification equivalency—effectively expediting my degree.
I have worked tirelessly to accomplish my goals.Experience
