OPEN TO OPPORTUNITIES

Vedant Mishra.

FSU BSIT alum with a Data Science minor and a deep passion for the intersection of data, development, and security. Currently building toward an MSCS at FAU, holding 9 active credentials across CompTIA, ISC2, and SAFe. I love building — production websites, ML pipelines, healthcare AI platforms, defensive security infrastructure — and shipping things that actually work.

// THE PERSON BEHIND THE SYSTEMS

Real human. Real range.

Three years, three roles, one trajectory. From BSIT undergrad and student-org leadership at FSU, through MSP operations and full-stack delivery in healthcare AI, into MSCS coursework, Black Hat / DEF CON, and a deepening DevSecOps practice. The technical work is what shows; the work ethic, fitness, design eye, and stubborn curiosity are what sustain it.

The Differentiator

Technology is not just code. It is infrastructure, trust, behavior, and consequence.

My work is driven by the real impact of systems: how security incidents affect people, how design changes behavior, how data reveals structure, and how engineering choices shape the organizations that rely on them.

Security Perspective

Cybersecurity with operational scar tissue.

Not just textbook security. Real environments. Real users. Real DNS weirdness. Real email security. Real tickets. Real pressure.

M365 / Defender / Entra

Identity, sign-in analysis, mailbox operations, Microsoft 365 administration, Defender visibility, and tenant troubleshooting.

Email Security

DKIM, DMARC, SPF, spoofing investigations, DNS alignment, and communication that translates risk without panic.

MSP Operations

ConnectWise workflows, endpoint support, Fortinet exposure, SharePoint/OneDrive issues, and user-centered troubleshooting.

Security Trajectory

Security+, CySA+, CSAP, ISC2 CC, CASP+/SecurityX study path, OSCP preparation, Black Hat USA, and DEF CON exposure.

Florida State University

BS Information Technology + Data Science Minor

Foundation in technical systems, analytics, data thinking, infrastructure, and applied computing.

Florida Atlantic University

MS Computer Science · In-progress

Graduate coursework across database systems, graph analytics, AI/ML, software, systems reasoning, and research-oriented development.

Computer Coach

Front-End Bootcamp + Certification

Practical development foundation, cohort learning, professional community, and early-career technical growth.

Education

A progression arc, not a random credential stack.

The story runs from IT and data foundations into graduate CS, cybersecurity operations, client-facing web systems, and deeper research direction.

Database Systems Graph Analytics AI/ML Oracle SQL Regression from Scratch Gibbs Sampling

Research Direction

Where curiosity becomes structure.

Research interests spanning security operations, graph systems, AI/ML, infrastructure, behavioral data, and the human side of technology.

Graph Theory & Networks

Community detection, influence structures, social graphs, behavioral networks, and systems-level interpretation.

NetworkXLouvain

AI / Machine Learning

Statistical learning, model behavior, implementation from scratch, probability, optimization, and interpretability.

RegressionSampling

Security Operations

Detection logic, infrastructure defense, email security, threat behavior, identity systems, and risk translation.

Who Am I?

Technical, creative, physical, human.

A portfolio should not hide the person. Mine connects software, security, research, fitness, gaming, design, community, and the obsession with understanding systems from the inside out.

Fitness

Discipline, resilience, momentum, and health as personal infrastructure.

Gaming

Systems, mechanics, progression, design, and interactive storytelling.

Design

Aesthetic systems, UI polish, motion, typography, and brand presence.

Community

Computer Coach, conferences, cohorts, mentorship, and collaborative learning.
