About Me

Welcome! Most of my professional career has been in two disciplines: retail management and video production. Two very different things that have led me to build  skill-sets that, I suspect, few other cybersecurity candidates have. For example, my retail management experience has led me to have a strong background in business and Human Resources. My creative background allows me to see problems and solutions in a manner that has served me well.

My end goal at the moment is to gain a role as a Junior SOC Analyst or entry-level cybersecurity role. Feel free to email me at tbaurain@proton.me for all inquiries

I find myself oddly at home during crises unfolding at a high rate of speed. Now that I am over 30 days in, I am identifying what professional skillsets I have that will be useful in cybersecurity. More after the jump.
