Cyber Security Student | Cloud Security Enthusiast | Perth, Australia
I am a Cyber Security student at Murdoch University with a passion for securing digital infrastructure and understanding attack vectors. I enjoy building and hardening systems, from cloud servers to web applications. This portfolio is hosted on an AWS EC2 instance that I configured from scratch - including the web server, domain configuration, SSL encryption, and automated security monitoring.
I am currently developing skills in network security, Linux system administration, cloud security, and scripting. My goal is to work as a security analyst or cloud security engineer after graduation.

Created an automated bash script that monitors SSL certificate expiry (critical for maintaining encrypted communications), creates timestamped backups of certificates and private keys, tests auto-renewal functionality via Certbot dry-runs, and logs all activity. Configured via cron to run daily at 2 AM.
