Aspiring penetration tester focused on cyber security, red teaming, and practical web exploitation through hands-on labs.

What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an internship/entry role in cybersecurity where I can perform ethical web and network penetration testing, learn red teaming methods, and deliver clear vulnerability findings with actionable remediation in a supportive team.

I’m a Computer Science student driven by cyber security, red teaming, and penetration testing. I’m dedicated to ethical hacking and continuous learning, turning training into practical, measurable results.

Through my DEPI penetration testing and vulnerability assessment training, I work on network penetration testing, web application penetration testing, and Active Directory attacks in controlled lab environments. I use tools like Nmap, Burp Suite, Metasploit, and enumeration frameworks, and I focus on writing technical reports with remediation recommendations.

My projects strengthen my real-world skills: I performed web testing on intentionally vulnerable apps like DVWA and Juice Shop, exploiting issues such as SQL Injection, XSS, and Broken Authentication. I also practice reconnaissance and traffic analysis with Nmap and Wireshark, and I run password and authentication testing using Hydra on Kali Linux—always paired with mitigation guidance. I bring a solid foundation from Cisco NetAcad and Fortinet FCA certifications.
