I'm a cybersecurity graduate with hands-on experience across penetration testing, network security, database security, and AI-assisted threat analysis. I like taking security concepts from theory to working, testable systems — whether that means breaking a deliberately vulnerable web app, hardening a segmented network, or documenting a full CTF-style engagement the way a real pentest report would read.
This profile is a snapshot of that work: hands-on labs, defensive builds, and structured writeups, kept broad across the field rather than tied to one niche.
- 🔭 Currently exploring offensive security, cloud misconfigurations, and AI/LLM security
- 🌱 Continuously building on SOC fundamentals, MITRE ATT&CK, and NIST risk frameworks
- 🎯 Interested in penetration testing, blue team / SOC analysis, and security engineering roles
- 💬 Ask me about Kali Linux, Burp Suite, Metasploit, pfSense, or SIEM tooling (Splunk/Wazuh)
Defensive Security & Networking
Full writeups and analysis for a 14-challenge security advent-style CTF, completed 14/14 (Very Easy → Hard). Every challenge follows a consistent pentest-report structure: Overview → Analysis → Root Cause → Exploitation → Remediation.

A deliberately vulnerable Flask web application built for teaching offensive and defensive web security. Each lab pairs a vulnerable route with a fixed route side by side, plus a full writeup covering root cause, attack steps, and defenses.

A MySQL-based banking database designed around core database security principles: encrypted account balances (AES), salted SHA-256 password hashing, Role-Based Access Control, audit logging, and trigger-based intrusion detection for suspicious large withdrawals.
