What motivated you to join Cyjax? 

As a freshly graduated master’s student, I was on the hunt for something exciting to kickstart my marketing career in the UK. I was craving something new, an opportunity to learn and grow in an area I’d never ventured into before. Cyjax offered just that! I was keen to dive into the unknown and expand my knowledge in a whole new industry. And here I am, loving the challenge and the learning curve! 

Can you describe your role in one sentence? 

How would you describe the culture at Cyjax? 

The culture at Cyjax is incredibly friendly and supportive, everyone’s always happy to help solve doubts without any judgment. Coming from a non-cybersecurity background, I never felt “dumb” because my questions were always taken seriously. Plus, the team is super funny, so there’s never a dull moment! 

What’s a memorable moment you’ve had at Cyjax? 

What’s one skill you’ve picked up (work-related or not) since joining Cyjax? 

Since joining Cyjax, I’ve really levelled up my content writing skills. I wasn’t super confident in writing blogs before, but now I’ve written a few, and I’m feeling way more confident about it! Also, I’ve mastered InDesign, pretty proud of myself for not getting completely lost in that software! 

What’s a random fun fact about you? 

I can have dessert for breakfast, lunch, lunch#2, lunch#3, lunch#4, and maybe even a couple more meals in one day—and never get bored. Yep, major sweet tooth here! 

What’s your go-to productivity hack? 

My go-to productivity hack is a physical to-do list. While having a to-do list is great, there’s something particularly satisfying about physically crossing off tasks as you complete them. I love seeing my notepad filled with sticky notes, even if one of the tasks is just to open my laptop! 

What’s the last book you read? Would you recommend it? 

I’m not really into nonfiction or self-help books, so my book list might be a bit embarrassing; it’s mostly fictional! The last book I read was Sunburn by Chloe Howarth, a sapphic coming-of-age story about Lucy navigating love, self-discovery, and growing up in a small, conservative Irish village.
