About Me

Cybersecurity student with a background in technology and game development.

My name is Garrett Lantz, and I am currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Cybersecurity at Kennesaw State University. I also hold an Associate Degree in Computer Information Systems and a Bachelor of Science in Game Design.

My background has given me experience with technical troubleshooting, software development, customer support, QA testing, and collaborative project work. I enjoy learning how systems work, solving technical problems, and building practical skills through hands-on projects.

I am especially interested in network security, Linux, vulnerability assessment, digital forensics, and incident response. I am currently building a cybersecurity portfolio that includes home lab projects, network traffic analysis, and system administration work.
