📡 Signal Trace (Background)
I bridge the gap between kinetic military operations and digital security.
Formerly a Signaller Communication Specialist for the Singapore Armed Forces (35 SCE), I operated secure tactical communication systems and managed cryptographic keys in mission-critical scenarios.
Now, I apply that same discipline to Cybersecurity. I don’t just monitor logs; I hunt for anomalies. My focus is Blue Team Operations, SIEM Architecture, and Threat Analysis.
