ABOUT

I am a senior Computer Science student with a deep passion for cybersecurity, particularly focusing on red teaming. I have a strong interest in understanding how systems operate, identifying potential vulnerabilities, and exploiting them. I enjoy spending time on hacking challenges and working on machines from different platforms, which allows me to deepen my skills and knowledge. Successfully earning industry-recognized certifications such as eJPTv2, Security+, and CCNA has provided me with a comprehensive skill set in penetration testing, network security, and enterprise-level networking. These certifications have equipped me with hands-on experience in areas such as network enumeration, exploitation, privilege escalation, and post-exploitation techniques. My knowledge spans across topics including vulnerability assessments and penetration testing methodologies. I am dedicated to continuously enhancing my cybersecurity expertise by exploring advanced attack techniques and refining my skills through practical applications. Participating in Capture The Flag (CTF) competitions and working on various penetration testing labs has allowed me to develop a strategic mindset and a methodical approach to identifying and exploiting vulnerabilities. I am always eager to expand my knowledge by keeping up with the latest security trends, tools, and tactics used in the industry. My goal is to further specialize in offensive security, mastering complex attack vectors and techniques to contribute effectively to real-world security challenges.
