Why Security
Not written yet — on purpose
This is the one page on the site that has to be in your own words. A generated paragraph here would read as generic no matter how well-informed it is — this is exactly the content a hiring manager reads to tell a real motivation from resume padding.
A starting outline
Three prompts, in order — answer each in 2-3 sentences and this page is basically done. Keep it under 400 words total.
The specific moment
Not "I've always been interested in security" — a real moment. Was it hardening the AI chatbot against prompt-injection at Bee Naturals? Something from the RBAC and encryption work? Name the actual task where security stopped being a checkbox and became the interesting part.
What you're building toward
Concretely — security engineer, SOC analyst, AppSec, something else? What does the Per Scholas cohort and the Ethical Hacker program point you toward specifically?
What carries over
This isn't a restart — 4+ years of production engineering is an asset in security, not a detour from it. What from that experience makes you better at this than someone coming in cold?
