About

I started IT as a trainee in 2020 then shortly after felt I needed some education and decided to pursue an education as a Cybersecurity Specialist and graduated in 2023. Moved onto a Systems Analyst position and currently work as a Network Analyst.

I enjoy reading about all kinds of technology and participating in CTFs. Besides tech I also enjoy playing guitar, reading science fantasy, and working on my vehicles.

I would love an opportunity in threat intelligence or DFIR.

One thing I am always on the lookout for are resources for Cyber news. Currently using sites like bleepingcomputer, techcrunch, and ZDI Blog. I also subscribed to TLDR infosec however I find AI is consuming the news space for a lot of these.

I do not care much for what is new in AI but I do care for how AI is being abused to profit Cyber Criminals. If you have any favourite Cyber news sites please share. Check out this article on Meta AI being abused to grant users access to other users accounts.

Hi!

I'm looking for a new role in Luxembourg,

Having evolved in demanding and highly diverse environments from Defense to banking (EIB), as well as healthcare and public institutions I have developed a dual approach: sharp, hands-on technical expertise combined with a strategic vision for IT governance .

Today, I want to bring this versatility to an ambitious organization, targeting roles in engineering, advanced administration, or IT management .

Here is a quick snapshot of my profile:

Networks & Perimeter Security: CEH (Ethical Hacker) and Cisco CCNA certified . Hands-on experience in Stormshield firewall administration, EDR/XDR deployment, and compliance (ANSSI / NIS 2 frameworks) .

Infrastructure & Cloud: Full management of Microsoft environments (Windows Server 2025, Active Directory, Azure, Entra ID) and steering High Availability clusters under Proxmox VE and VMware ESXi .

Governance & Automation: Leading infrastructure overhaul projects , drafting PSSI/DAT (Security Policies & Technical Architecture Documents) , and developing custom administration tools via scripting (PowerShell, Bash, C#) .

Passionate about offensive security (Red Teaming currently in progress) and tech watch (especially AI integration applied to Azure engineering) , I thrive on linking pure technical execution with global infrastructure resilience.

If you have ongoing projects, openings within your teams, or simply want to connect and discuss the local market, feel free to reach out to me via PM
