Summary
Emily Marinovich is a bilingual Chinese teacher and information security practitioner with 11 years of professional experience blending IT, teaching, research, and international business. She pairs hands-on cybersecurity skills (Snort, Wireshark, nmap, Linux, WPA/WPA2, OpenDNS) and programming experience (Java, Python, PHP, R, MySQL) with pedagogical methods to design learner-centered Chinese instruction. Her background includes applied security work in VMware environments, defense-in-depth deployments, and teaching cybersecurity awareness to seniors, demonstrating both technical depth and community-focused communication. Earlier roles in international sales and medical research give her a rare mix of cross-cultural negotiation, data analysis, and clinical research discipline. Based in Silver Spring, MD, she leverages bilingual fluency and a Master’s in Human/Medical Genetics to approach problems analytically and empathetically. She is comfortable shifting between classrooms, lab environments, and network forensics, making technical topics accessible to nontechnical audiences.
