<div class="about-text">
<p>
I'm a <strong>university student</strong> focused on building a career in <strong>offensive security</strong> and <strong>penetration testing</strong>.
</p>
<p>
I'm currently in an intensive learning phase, working toward the <strong>Burp Suite Certified Practitioner (BSCP)</strong> while developing the practical skills required for <strong>OSCP-level work</strong>.
</p>
<p>
This blog serves as a record of that journey - documenting <strong>CTF write-ups</strong>, <strong>lab walkthroughs</strong>, and technical breakdowns of real-world attack techniques and tools.
</p>
<p>
Outside of that, I spend most of my time writing <strong>Python</strong> for automation, working through <strong>TryHackMe</strong> labs, and solving challenges on <strong>Hack The Box</strong> to strengthen my hands-on capabilities.
