Aspiring cybersecurity engineer with a focus on offensive security.
What I'm looking for
As a cybersecurity engineer, I thrive on challenges in offensive cybersecurity, particularly in penetration testing, red teaming, reverse engineering, and malware development. I am set to graduate in July 2024, and I am eager to kickstart my career in this dynamic field. My passion for cybersecurity drives my continuous learning and growth.
During my internship at Windows Defender, I have developed malware that evades detection and created custom DLLs to disable security functions. My work in vulnerability research has ranked me among the top 800 researchers on Bugcrowd, where I have identified over 150 vulnerabilities and received Hall of Fame recognition from prestigious programs. I am committed to advancing my skills and contributing to the cybersecurity community.
