Hi, I’m Anthony 👋
I enjoy a wide range of IT topics, but the goal is to enter the Information Security professional space.
I’m currently available for hire.
Current Certifications
After graduating with a Bachelor’s degree in Game Art & Design, I spent several years in the Entertainment Industry operating a moderate sized cinema chain throughout Southern California. Over time, I became more fascinated with larger scale operations and had the opportunity to oversee the licensing division of a local municipality.
In my experiences, Information Security has played a vital role and has become my chief point of interest to pursue going forward.
