About

Computer Science undergraduate building and securing real-world systems across backend engineering, penetration testing, networking, DevOps, and self-hosted AWS infrastructure. I work with Linux, Docker, Git, reverse proxies, databases, and cloud services to build, deploy, operate, and harden systems.

My competitive programming background shapes a systems-first approach to security: understand how software and infrastructure work internally, then test, improve, and secure them.

What I'm Working On

  • Deepening my Django knowledge for secure backend architecture and rapid development
  • Progressing through TryHackMe's Junior Pentester path
  • Practicing on Hack The Box and picoCTF
  • Designing and self-hosting full-stack applications on AWS EC2
  • Building repeatable CI/CD workflows with GitHub Actions to automate testing and application delivery
