1. Format is rough. There are some really good examples of you scroll through this bowl.
2. Can take high school out
3. Lean into some free or cheap certifications
4. Start networking around, cyber is incredibly in demand so it shouldn’t be too tough.

I highly suggest looking up the Wharton resume format and using that.
Instead of using "set up" twice, I'd use different terms like "created", "launched", I'd write "created and launched personal website" instead of "launched it from scratch" to be more concise, "established relationships with customers, identified their problems, and proposed appropriate products and solutions." Mostly stylistic edits, otherwise looks excellent!
Make sure capitalization format is consistent (e.g., under skills section, you capitalize skills once and leave lowercase once) - makes it look sloppy and lazy
Polish your format. You can use as a reference any resumes posted here or on google.
I have a resume template posted at destinationinternship.com I recommend checking it out. I recommend taking out coursework. Moving experience above projects and expanding on the personal projects depending on how much you think they relate to the role you want. Education section in total should be 2-3 lines max per school. Order of sections i suggest being: Summary, Education, Experience, Personal Projects, skills. And whatever you do, keep the resume format simple because it is not an art but mostly a science. Recruiters only look at resumes for a few seconds. So you want your resume to be as easy to read as possible so key info can be picked up by whoever is reading it in as little time as possible. I’m also on TikTok sharing internship advice at DestinationInternship. Let me know if you got any other questions I can help with!
I’d take out the summary portion.
As a hiring manager, this may be my own preference, but I really appreciate a summary section after reading dozens of resumes....
