TL;DR: I'm a security focused technologist, that doesn't shy away from a challenge, or learning new things.
Penetration Tester & Jr DevOps Engineer
As a versatile technologist with a keen interest in security, I have worn many hats; including those of a system administrator, IT support specialist, and web developer. Driven by a strong desire to become a proficient penetration tester, I devote much of my time to refining my skills in this domain. I believe in embracing the new as an opportunity to broaden my horizons and learn new things, and I'm always eager to take on new challenges that help me grow both personally and professionally.
