Bio

I am currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science at the University of Calgary, focusing on programming, data structures, algorithms, and software engineering. My passion lies in cybersecurity, where I strive to build secure and reliable systems. To complement my studies, I have obtained multiple certifications from Microsoft, including AZ-900 (Azure Fundamentals), SC-900 (Security, Compliance, and Identity Fundamentals), and AI-900 (AI Fundamentals), showcasing my commitment to expanding my expertise in cloud technologies, security, and artificial intelligence.

In addition to my technical pursuits, I hold two bachelor’s degrees in Music and Education. These experiences have honed my abilities in public speaking, presenting complex concepts, and explaining technical information in a clear and engaging manner. With this unique blend of technical knowledge and communication skills, I am eager to contribute to innovative solutions that bridge technology and human interaction.

Secure API Enhancement for Sensitive Data Transmission

Cross-Checks Background Reporting Inc. is seeking to enhance the security of its backend API system, which handles sensitive data transmission. The project focuses on developing a robust security architecture to protect user data and ensure compliance with industry standards. Key objectives include implementing a robust authentication and authorization system with role-based access control to limit user permissions. Additionally, the project aims to ensure data encryption both at rest and in transit, and to perform input validation and sanitization for user forms. Learners will research and recommend tools and methods for securing API designs, as well as establish logging and monitoring mechanisms. The ultimate goal is to create a comprehensive security architecture and compile a detailed report for the organization.
