Build it. Secure it. Design it.

The best defenders understand how systems are built. With eight years spent designing networks and running infrastructure, I now focus on cybersecurity: spotting threats early and protecting the systems organizations depend on.

Every business has a story worth showing. I’ve helped tell more than 350+ of them through logos and brand identities, along with social media and websites design that bring them to life. Based in Central Visayas, Philippines, and working with clients anywhere.

The Approach

I build the network, secure the system, and design the brand that sits on top. One person who sees the whole stack, from the firewall to the logo.

    About

    Hi, I'm Kemp.

    I’m an IT and cybersecurity professional from Central Visayas, Philippines, with eight years of experience across network infrastructure, systems administration, web development, and brand design.

    I started in IT support (5.5 years), moved into remote web and design work for a US-based client, then built a local government’s network from the ground up, including its data privacy policies and access controls.

    Now my focus is Cybersecurity. I completed the TryHackMe SOC Level 1 path in the top 2% globally, run my own Wazuh and Active Directory labs, and I’m preparing for the CCNA, then CompTIA Security+.

    I’m a graphic, brand, and web designer from Central Visayas, Philippines, with 350+ logos and brands created so far, along with social media visuals and websites.

    Through KLO Design, I create logos, branding, and WordPress sites for local businesses. I’ve also worked remotely on web design and marketing for a US-based client.

    FAQ

    Quick answers.

    I work across three areas: cybersecurity (security monitoring, access management, and compliance), IT and network administration, and web and graphic design. That means I can build a system, secure it, and give it a professional look, all in one hire.

    Yes. Most engagements are either security/IT or design/web. Use the Design & Web / Cyber & IT switch at the top to see each side on its own.

    Central Visayas, Philippines (GMT+8). I’ve worked on-site, remote, and across US hours for international clients.
