About Me

I'm a passionate security researcher specializing in web application security. My journey in cybersecurity started with CTF competitions and evolved into professional bug bounty hunting.

I enjoy playing CTFs and building tools that save time during recon. My approach combines manual testing expertise with automation to find vulnerabilities that others might miss.

When I'm not hunting bugs, I write detailed writeups to help the community learn from my findings. I believe in responsible disclosure and making the internet a safer place, one vulnerability at a time.
