Hello! I'm Natasha Shorrock. I graduated from Bridgewater State University with a BS in Psychology and later transitioned into technology, graduating Cum Laude from Bristol Community College's Computer Programming and Web Development program.
At Bristol, I helped create the Cybersecurity Club and served as its first president. I led weekly cybersecurity lessons, CTF practice, and National Cyber League preparation with other club members.
I also served as Lead Graphic Designer for The Hawk student newspaper, creating newsletter and social media graphics, and participated in STEM Leadership through campus outreach and student programming.
