Profile

Since 2017, I have been deeply passionate about cybersecurity, building hands-on expertise in both offensive and defensive security practices. I have actively engaged in red and blue team operations, leveraging my skills to assess, fortify, and defend digital infrastructures against evolving cyber threats. My ability to navigate the ever-changing landscape of cybersecurity is complemented by a strong foundation in scripting languages like Python, PowerShell, and Bash, allowing me to create robust tools and automation processes that enhance security and streamline workflows.

To bolster my technical acumen, I hold CompTIA Network+ KLCP (Kali Linux Certified Professional) and OSWP (Offensive Security Wireless Professional) ,—OSCP (Offensive Security Certified Professional), — Azure Solutions Architect Expert (AZ305), Azure DevOps Engineer Expert (AZ400)

Beyond cybersecurity, I am equally invested in the DevOps and automation domains, applying modern practices to improve operational efficiency and align security with agile development lifecycles. My experience spans developing CI/CD pipelines, automating deployments, and ensuring compliance with cybersecurity standards throughout the software development process.
