Hello potential future employer, I am currently transitioning from the audio-visual industry into Cloud Computing and Cybersecurity. I have been doing my best to improve my knowledge on the industry by staying up to date on new technologies and stories, via the Darknet Diaries podcast, and using online resources like full paid subscriptions to TryHackMe and ACloud Guru to be better equipped for growing in this industry. I have spent hours away from work learning as many of the tools, technologies, and languages needed to be proficient in cloud Architecture and implementation. I am focused on starting at the bottom and working may way to becoming a Security Architect in Multi-Cloud environments. I also have a passion for learning ML/AI and will also do that in the free time I have away from my full-time job. And, in my opinion, my extensive background in customer facing positions grants me a level of soft skills that are necessary for building relationships within the cloud. ㅡ AWS and Azure services like (EC2, ARM, S3, Cloud Formation, VPC, Virtual machines, Route 53, Lambda, Azure Functions, SQS, CloudFront and load balancers)
