My name is Showrab Habib, and I came to the United States with a dream — to learn from the best, grow into the best, and one day give back. Growing up in Dhaka, Bangladesh, I was always the person people called when something went wrong with their computer. That curiosity for technology never left me. It grew into a passion, and that passion led me here.

I am currently pursuing a Master's in Cybersecurity & Networking at Louisiana State University Shreveport with a perfect GPA of 4.0, working as a Student Security Analyst through the LSUS–TekStream program. Every day I monitor real threats, investigate SIEM alerts, and respond to incidents and every day I am reminded why I chose this field. Cybersecurity is not just a career for me. It is the place where I get to do what I have always wanted, defend people, protect their data, and stand between them and those who mean harm.

Before stepping into security, I spent over 3 years building things on the web e-commerce platforms, company websites, learning systems as a software engineer and web developer across Bangladesh, Indonesia, and the US. That foundation in development gives me a unique perspective in security. I do not just see the threat. I understand the system being attacked.

Beyond the technical work, I believe in people and community. I serve as President of the International Student Association at LSUS, a role that connects me to students from all over the world who, like me, came here chasing something bigger than themselves. I have also taught coding to students as young as elementary school age, because I believe technology should be accessible to everyone.

My dream is simple but meaningful, to build something that protects people, whether that is in the United States, back home in Bangladesh, or anywhere in the world where good security work is needed. I am not just here to get a job. I am here to make a difference.
