What I'm looking for

I’m looking for cybersecurity opportunities in penetration testing and digital forensics where I can apply hands-on tooling, help analyze vulnerabilities, and keep growing through real security challenges.

I’m a passionate cybersecurity enthusiast and CTF player, driven by curiosity about how systems are attacked and defended. I build practical expertise through hands-on practice, security challenges, and security labs.

I regularly work on CTF problems involving web exploitation, privilege escalation, network analysis, and digital forensics. These experiences strengthen my problem-solving skills and help me develop a practical understanding of real-world security vulnerabilities.

I use tools such as Kali Linux, Wireshark, and Snort, along with forensic analysis frameworks, to investigate and analyze security issues. I enjoy experimenting with new techniques for vulnerability discovery and analysis.

Currently, I’m focused on my final-year project, MetaSpy, a tool designed to analyze and clean metadata from digital files to support digital investigations and improve user privacy. I’m seeking opportunities in cybersecurity, penetration testing, and digital forensics where I can contribute and keep growing.
