About Me

Hello! I'm a final year Cybersecurity student with a passion for Ethical Hacking and Digital Forensics.

My journey started with simple CTF challenges and evolved into building comprehensive defense strategies. I specialise in vulnerability assessment, Python scripting for automation, and network forensics.

Currently studying for OSCP certification.
