Master of Cyber Security student — Perth, Australia

About Me

I'm studying a Master of Cyber Security at Edith Cowan University (ECU) in Perth, which I started in Semester 2, 2026 on a scholarship, and working as a Logistics Administrator alongside it. The course finishes with an industry placement.

My technical background is in software testing — a QA Engineering bootcamp at TripleTen, plus freelance testing projects through uTest. It's a useful foundation for security work: reading specifications carefully, breaking things deliberately, and documenting exactly what I find.

Right now I'm working through Linux and networking fundamentals on TryHackMe, threat hunting with KQL on KC7, and CTF challenges on CyLab/picoCTF, with a Kali Linux home lab to practise on.

It all goes into a public learning log — a live record of how I'm getting there. I'm aiming for a security analyst or security engineering role after I graduate.

Learning Log

My public learning log is where I document everything I study — from QA fundamentals to cybersecurity labs, networking concepts, and hands-on tool usage.

It's a live record of how I learn, not just what I've learned. Every lab, every platform, every concept gets written up.
