CHARLOTTE GALLOWAY

Computer Science Student | Cybersecurity

I'm a Computer Science student near sophomore standing currently attending Louisiana Tech University. I plan to concentrate in Cybersecurity with interests in penetration testing, ethical hacking, and secure software development. I enjoy solving technical challenges and continuously expanding my knowledge through hands-on projects, go check out my portfolio to see some of my latest endeavors!

Current Focus

I’m accelerating my learning outside the classroom through security projects, hands-on labs, and CTFs while preparing for the CompTIA Security+ certification. I’m actively seeking opportunities to apply these skills in a real-world cybersecurity internship.

I’m particularly interested in offensive security, system vulnerabilities, and solving problems from both the attacker and defender perspective. I’m focused on developing practical skills across cybersecurity, networking, and software development by building and experimenting with real systems.
