About Christian
I'm a seasoned network engineer with over 20 years of experience across enterprise infrastructure, security, and wireless architecture. My background spans private sector consulting and public service (Belgian Police), where I developed a strong attention to detail, analytical thinking, and resilience - key traits I now bring into the cybersecurity domain.
I'm currently transitioning into cybersecurity, with a focus on penetration testing and Red teaming. I'm actively preparing for CompTIA Cysa+, followed by CEH and OSCP.
Open to junior cybersecurity opportunities, and security focused roles that allow me to grow in the offensive security space.
