About
I'm Angelina — a new cybersecurity grad (WGU '25, seven certs) trying to figure out the same thing every new grad is: where the work is that hasn't already been picked over by people with ten years of experience.
For me, the answer keeps coming back to AI security. Companies everywhere are rolling out ChatGPT and Copilot without anyone really minding the security side — especially the smaller ones who don't have a dedicated security team. That's where I want to be useful.
I write here about what I'm building, what I'm trying to break (on purpose), and the honest mistakes I make along the way. My day job is IT and security support for a small medical practice in the Bay Area, so if you're trying to use AI tools without losing control of your patient data — or you're a fellow new grad trying to find a way in — stick around.
