01About Me

Hi, I'm Muskan 👋

I work in HR at M Cyber Academy, but my job rarely feels like just "HR". Most days I'm helping someone figure out their next move in cybersecurity, or helping a company find the exact person they've been looking for.

I sit right where people, technology and opportunity meet — counselling students on cyber careers, building employer partnerships, and getting universities and industry to actually talk to each other.

I care about the human side of a very technical field. Growth, clarity, and giving people a genuine shot — that's the whole point.

  • People

    HR that actually listens.

  • Security

    Guiding cyber careers.

  • Growth

    Helping talent level up.

  • Bridges

    Campus meets industry.

02What I Do

Different hats, one throughline — helping people and organisations grow in and around cybersecurity.

  • HR & Talent Acquisition

    Finding the right people and building teams that actually work well together.

  • Cybersecurity Career Counselling

    Helping students and professionals map a real path into cyber roles.

  • University–Industry Collaboration

    Connecting campuses with employers so learning meets the real world.

  • Employer Branding

    Telling company stories that make the right talent want to stay.

  • Student & Talent Development
