What I'm looking for

I’m looking for internships / entry-level pentesting (remote or on-site) with immediate start, where I can contribute to Red Team work, learn from real enterprise engagements, and apply my exploit development and web/AD offensive security expertise.

I’m a results-driven Cybersecurity Researcher and Junior Penetration Tester, ranked in the Top 1% globally on TryHackMe. I lead development of AEGIS, reaching 92.7% vulnerability detection accuracy.

I specialize in Active Directory exploitation (including Kerberoasting, Pass-the-Hash, and lateral movement) and Web App Security with a focus on OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities. I also build and apply offensive tooling with Python exploit development and automation using practical pentesting workflows.

I’m currently seeking a Red Team/Junior Pentester role to apply my offensive security skills in real-world enterprise environments. I bring a research mindset—grounded in compliance safeguards and secure practices—so testing results translate into stronger defenses.
