Offensive security. Real-world impact.

Cybersecurity researcher and bug hunter specializing in penetration testing, bug bounty hunting and vulnerability assessment. I report security flaws to organizations like Apple, Google, Toyota and NASA, and compete in CTFs and security labs when I'm not hunting bugs.

Currently pursuing a B.Tech in CSE (Cyber Security) at Silver Oak University, focused on web and API security, secure coding and offensive techniques.
