My Working Experience
I started young delivering mail around the neighborhood. It taught me to show up and get things done without someone looking over my shoulder.
After that I worked at Jumbo and did also work as a delivery cyclist. Both jobs were hands on, fast paced and kept me sharp.
Then I moved into IT. I started as a helpdesk intern supporting employees with day to day technical issues. They offered me a work after my internship and I took it.
During my second internship at the same company. I led an MFA rollout across 30 locations with over 100 employees. I managed the planning and made sure every location completed the rollout.

More About Me
About me
I’m 20 years old based in Hilversum and currently studying HBO ICT in Amsterdam. Before that I completed my MBO where I got my first real taste of working in IT.
I’ve always been drawn to the technical side of things. Not just fixing problems but understanding how systems work and where they break. That curiosity is what pushed me toward offensive security.
My goal is to grow into a role as a pentester or red team operator. I want to be the person who thinks like an attacker to help organizations stay ahead of real threats. I’m still early in that journey, but I’m putting in the work every day to get there.
Skills
Over the years I’ve built up a mix of practical IT and security skills, both through work and on my own time.
On the IT side I’m comfortable with Windows, Microsoft 365, TOPdesk, and helpdesk support. I’ve worked with these tools in a real company environment not just in a classroom.
On the security side I work with Kali Linux, Nmap, Python, SQL, Docker and Cisco. I use these tools regularly when practicing on CTF platforms and working through security challenges.
Linux in general are part of my daily workflow. I’m not afraid to get into the terminal and figure things out. I keep adding to this list as I pick up new tools and techniques.
Learning proccess
School gives me a foundation, but most of what I know comes from outside the classroom. I spend a lot of time on TryHackMe and Hack The Box, working through real security challenges that push me to think and problem-solve under pressure.
I stay active in security communities on Discord and LinkedIn where I follow people who are already doing the work I want to do. YouTube is another big one. There’s a huge amount of technical content out there and I use it constantly.
I believe the best way to get good at this field is to just do it. Read, practice, break things, figure out why, and do it again. That mindset is what drives me and it’s what I bring to everything I work on.
