Having to start over again after being fired from a 5-year job, I saw the trend of hacks and saw that cybersecurity was going to be a low unemployment industry. I went back to college and started this new career path at the age of 34. This presentation will showcase the path I have made going from graduating college with a BSIT degree and zero industry experience to getting a SoC analyst job to becoming a project engineer inside of 1 year from date of hire.
