about

I am a BEng (Hons) Cyber Security graduate from the University of the West of Scotland, having graduated in 2026. My practical experience spans blockchain security, digital forensics, penetration testing, network security and secure programming. During my Honours Dissertation I developed SmartGuard, a Slither-based DeFi fraud detection tool that achieved a flawless 100 % precision, recall and F1 score on a 17‑contract evaluation dataset. The project was recognised at SIGiST 2026 in London and later corroborated by a professional audit from BlockSec. Throughout my studies I have also completed several project assignments, including Operation FishNet, an ACPO‑compliant forensic investigation yielding over 50 court‑ready exhibits, and a series of security‑testing courses covering OWASP Pentest Suite, Network Security COMP10014 and Secure Programming COMP10068. All of these endeavours achieved either A2 or First‑Class grades. I am actively seeking roles in SOC‑analysis, penetration testing, DFIR, application security or blockchain security where I can leverage this diverse skill set.
