Current Focus
Offensive security.
Broad technical range.
This site is where red-team leaning security work, networking knowledge, IT experience, and AI curiosity meet. I like being hard to box in: comfortable in offensive security, useful across infrastructure and systems, and always interested in how the pieces connect.
