About Me

Who I am

I'm a Cyber Security student at Galgotias University who genuinely enjoys breaking things to understand how they work. From Gaya, Bihar — I've spent hundreds of hours in the terminal running real attacks on TryHackMe labs, not just reading theory.

My focus is offensive security — web application pentesting, network enumeration, and privilege escalation. I'm actively seeking internships in penetration testing or SOC analysis where I can grow under real-world conditions.
