A computer science Honours Undergraduate (with a 2.1-degree class) with interest in finding employment in the IT department, with vast knowledge in programming, system analysis, software engineering, Database design, Linux administration and network security auditing. My best interests in computer science are information systems security, quality assurance and compliance with world class standards; computer/IT auditing, business analysis, IT Controls Analysis, risk assessment and management-hence my study of CISA; software development especially of financial applications.
