At Zynex Solutions, I train students across CEH v13 domains and supervise CTF-style labs in web exploitation, privilege escalation, and attack-and-defend scenarios. I teach offensive and defensive security from beginner to professional level.

At Tech Biz Security, I carried out penetration tests and vulnerability assessments, reported findings with fixes, and supported defensive hardening and monitoring. I also helped build hands-on cybersecurity labs and SOC and ethical-hacking internship tasks for TechBiz Security Academy.
