What I'm looking for

I seek hands-on roles in penetration testing or application security at teams that value learning, mentorship, and opportunities to build tooling and report-impactful findings.

I am a passionate, self-driven cybersecurity professional with hands-on experience in web application penetration testing, vulnerability assessments, and PoC reporting gained through real-world internship projects. I hold certifications including CEHv13, eJPT, and API Penetration Testing, and I prioritize secure coding and ethical hacking practices.

I have experience using tools such as Burp Suite, Metasploit, OWASP ZAP, and Nmap, and I have automated reconnaissance and reporting workflows with scripting and tools like Subfinder and Amass. My practical projects include a Triple DES-based file encryption tool and a Python-based keylogger with encrypted log delivery, demonstrating both offensive testing and tool development skills.
