About

I am a cybersecurity practitioner with a strong interest in offensive security, cloud infrastructure, automation, and application-layer risk. My work spans Python-based tooling, Flask applications, security research, and technical problem-solving across both engineering and security domains. I am particularly interested in roles where security depth and software capability are both required.
