What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to grow in cybersecurity, focusing on hands-on challenges and collaborative environments.

I am an aspiring cybersecurity professional currently pursuing my Master's degree in Cybercriminality at the Université de Lausanne. My journey in the field began with a strong foundation in forensics, where I completed my Bachelor's degree, focusing on investigations related to the Ethereum blockchain. This academic background has equipped me with a unique perspective on the intersection of technology and security.

In addition to my formal education, I actively engage in hacking and pentesting challenges on platforms like root-me.org and hackthebox.com. This hands-on experience has sharpened my skills in network security, incident response, and malware analysis. I am passionate about teaching and have been providing private lessons in computer science and mathematics, which has further enhanced my ability to communicate complex concepts effectively.
