About

Short-summary about myself

I'm a cybersecurity enthusiast focused on web application security and VAPT. I care about reproducible methodology, clean writeups, and practical fixes that reduce real-world risk. Right now, I'm publishing daily TryHackMe walkthroughs, building automation to speed up recon and triage, and recently passed the eJPT & ICCA exam by INE.
