At Black Knight, @CyberGent_101 is an Incident Response Analyst. His proudest achievement so far has been leading a cloud security project from a threat hunting, forensics, and defensive standpoint. #ShareTheMicInCyber

In March 2020, @CyberGent_101 had the opportunity to speak at the SANS BlueTeam Summit hosted by @SANSDefense, where he presented a log analysis talk, entitled “Computer Love: Love Letters and Log Analysis.” #ShareTheMicInCyber

.@CyberGent_101 initially developed a passion for cyber security as a Sergeant in @FLGuard. He was approached by a Warrant Officer who believed in his skillset enough to give him a chance as a security analyst both in the military and in the corporate sector. #ShareTheMicInCyber

.@CyberGent_101 faced some rejection during his IT and cyber security career. One time, he did not get a role because someone lied on a resume and got the job he'd applied for. This same person later admitted to being overwhelmed, saying "They should have hired you."

.@CyberGent_101 has developed a scholarship fund with the hopes of sending two high school students majoring in IT or #CyberSecurity to college with $500 and a laptop via his non-profit, 9th Bridge Jacksonville. To donate go here: paypal.me/9thbridgejax #ShareTheMicInCyber
