I'm a Cybersecurity Engineer and DevOps practitioner with a passion for breaking things apart to understand how they work — and then building them back stronger.

My work lives at the intersection of offensive security and infrastructure engineering. During the day I'm hardening cloud architectures, building CI/CD pipelines, and automating everything I can get my hands on. After hours I'm on HackTheBox, competing in CTFs, or writing about interesting vulnerabilities I've come across.

I believe the best defenders are the ones who understand offense. That's why I invest time in CTF competitions — they keep the skills sharp and the mindset attacker-first.
