About Me

Passionate about Web Technologies, Cybersecurity, and AI, I am an optimistic individual who wears the hat of a developer during the day and transitions into a Cybersecurity Tester by night. My OS shifts from Windows to Kali Linux as the sun sets XD. Motivated and goal-driven, I thrive on my passion for technology. Beyond mere objectives, I am a dedicated dreamer, remaining loyal to my aspirations and showing up every day to bring them to fruition.

I have gained extensive practical knowledge from Portswigger and TryHackMe Labs, and participated in CTF events on BugBase and HackTheBox. Additionally, I have engaged in bug bounty hunting on platforms like HackerOne and BugCrowd. I stay informed by reading HackerOne Hacktivity and writeups on Medium, and remain connected with the bug bounty community on Twitter and Discord. I prioritize ethical considerations in cybersecurity, approaching every task with integrity and a commitment to responsible practices.
