In cybersecurity, real skill comes from getting hands-on, breaking things, fixing them, and understanding why they broke in the first place. This blog is where I document that process, focusing on the technical depth behind modern attacks and defenses.
I'm a penetration tester holding certifications in networking (CCNA), foundational security (CompTIA Security+), and practical network penetration testing (PNPT). Right now, I'm working through the Certified Penetration Testing Specialist (CPTS) from Hack The Box while tackling side projects that dive into red team operations, experimenting with frameworks like Sliver C2, lateral movement, and evasion techniques that simulate real adversaries.
