Alfonso September

I am currently a Cyber Security Engineer for a company called Nclose.

Throughout my career, I have been gaining experience with support, customer service, SLAs, ticketing systems and various technologies. I have studied and obtained a higher certificate for Information Systems and Network Engineering as well as a Bachelor' degree in IT. I believe that I do have the skills and the knowledge to be a success as well as adapt to any environment that I am placed in. I consider myself a quick study. Respect and positivity are my greatest assets, as well as my ability to learn. I am a interpersonal person and can work quite well within a team and with people.

I am happy with where I am currently and my reason to find a new company to work for, would be to find growth in my career.
