About Jacob Wiley

As a recent graduate with a B.S. in Information Computer Science from the School of Computer Science at Park University and an Air Force veteran, my journey has been defined by leadership, strategic thinking, and a passion for technology and cybersecurity. This unique blend of experiences has propelled me toward a future career as an IT Security Manager, with a solid foundation built on rigorous academic and practical learning experiences in Cybersecurity, Computer Networking, and Information Security. In my current role as a Management Consultant at Greencastle Consulting, a nation’s premier strategy execution firm that is 100% veteran-owned and entirely veteran-operated, I leverage my skills to drive innovative solutions for complex challenges. My time in the Air Force honed my leadership abilities, teaching me the importance of strategic planning and execution in high-stakes environments. These experiences have been invaluable in my transition to the civilian tech sector, where I've expanded my expertise in Cloud Management, Network Protocol Analyzing, SQL, Penetration Testing, and Cryptography. The most significant lessons from my academic and military career include mastering time management, the importance of asking for help, and the ability to innovate and solve problems creatively. As I continue to grow in my role at Greencastle Consulting, I am committed to applying these principles to achieve strategic objectives and deliver innovative solutions. My goal is to continue building my skills in real-world applications, aspiring to make a significant impact in the IT and cybersecurity realms through leadership and strategic innovation.
