Cybersecurity Student • Defensive Security & Systems Engineering
I'm a defensive-security-focused student with hands-on experience building resilient Linux systems, deploying network security tools like firewalls and IPS, and engineering high-availability services. My passion is in building and hardening digital infrastructure, from my own self-hosted services to full-stack web applications. I'm always looking for opportunities to improve monitoring, automate operations, and make systems more robust.
My work and studies revolve around three main pillars:
-
Hardening Digital Fortresses (Defensive Security): Designing and deploying layered security controls. I use my home lab as a personal proving ground for tools like
pfSense,Suricata, andSnortto monitor, detect, and respond to threats in real-time. -
Building Resilient Systems (Systems Engineering): Architecting and maintaining high-availability infrastructure. I have practical experience building redundant clusters with
NGINX,MariaDB Cluster, andGlusterFS, and I'm comfortable containerizing applications withDocker. -
Developing Secure by Design (Software Engineering): Writing clean, secure, and efficient code. I enjoy working across the full stack, from low-level systems programming in
CandGoto building RESTful APIs inNode.jsand frontends inVueorAngular.
Here are a few projects I'm particularly proud of.
| Project | Description | Key Technologies |
|---|---|---|
| Home Network & Security Lab | My personal, self-hosted lab for experimenting with network services and security tools on Raspberry Pis. | Pi-hole, ntopng, Netdata, WireGuard, OpenVPN, Linux Admin |
| High-Availability Web Cluster | Built a redundant e-commerce cluster with load balancing and automatic failover on Debian VMs. | NGINX, MariaDB Cluster, GlusterFS, Bash |
| Penetration Testing Lab | Conducted reconnaissance, exploited vulnerabilities (Log4j, EternalBlue), and exfiltrated data. | Nmap, Metasploit, pfSense, Suricata, Wireshark |
| Diet Platform (Full-Stack) | A full-stack platform connecting nutritionists and patients with JWT auth and real-time chat. | Node.js, Express, Angular, MongoDB, Socket.IO, REST APIs |
| Playlix Official Website | Designed and developed a responsive, fast-loading company website as a freelance project. | Vue.js, JavaScript, HTML/CSS |
