Aspiring Red Teamer
I break things
so others can't.
Offensive security enthusiast focused on adversary mindset and penetration testing.
Thinking like
the adversary.
I am an aspiring Red Teamer currently in my second year at the Gulzar Group of Institutes. Driven by a passion for offensive security, my methodology goes beyond automated scanning. I train to think like a threat actor, adopting an adversarial mindset to anticipate attacks and proactively secure the networks I am tasked with protecting.
How I got here.
-
Networking & Offensive Security
I kicked off my college semesters by diving into the fundamentals of Data Communication and Networking via Behrouz A. Forouzan. Since then, I’ve been putting that theory into practice through Hackathons and CTFs, while also completing a series of virtual internships. Right now, I’m actively grinding on TryHackMe to sharpen my practical hacking skills.

JEE Aspirant
Dedicated my final school year to the JEE, securing a 91.74 percentile. Although focusing entirely on competitive prep impacted my 12th-grade boards, it taught me how to handle high-pressure environments and complex technical challenges.
-
Open Source & Modern Frameworks
I started contributing to the ChryzHub organization on GitHub, which gave me my first real taste of collaboration. At the same time, I began teaching myself React to understand how complex, component-based web apps are built.
-
Leveling Up During Lockdown
The COVID-19 period gave me the space to lean into my curiosity. I shifted from basic web structure to actual functionality by diving deep into JavaScript. This was the moment my web development journey really accelerated, as I began to understand how to build interactive, logic-driven applications.

The Beginning
My passion for Ethical Hacking was there, but the roadmap wasn't clear yet. So, I jumped onto W3Schools and started grinding through HTML5 and CSS3 to get my fundamentals down.
