What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that foster innovation in blockchain security and allow for continuous learning and collaboration.

I am a dedicated Security Researcher and Smart Contract Auditor with a proven track record in identifying high-impact vulnerabilities in EVM-based protocols. My expertise has been recognized in competitive audits, where I uncovered critical issues such as reentrancy, MEV, and oracle manipulation. I leverage tools like Slither, Mythril, and Foundry to conduct both manual and automated audits across various blockchain systems, including DeFi, NFT, and DAO projects.

My journey in blockchain security is driven by a passion for advancing the field through research, education, and open collaboration. I have contributed significantly to open-source security and possess a deep understanding of Ethereum internals, upgradeable contracts, and decentralized identity protocols. I thrive on collaborating with development teams to enhance security practices and ensure the integrity of blockchain applications.
