Victor, MSc Cyber Security and Forensic Information Technology
'My journey started with a background in computer science, but over time, I’ve developed a passion for PR, media, and social media branding. I love how digital platforms can be used to tell stories and build strong connections. Now, I’m diving into cybersecurity to help make the tech world safer. Outside of school, I’m all about balancing work and play, I enjoy nights out but also love spending time at home to recharge. I’m happy to chat and share my experiences!'
