About Me

I break things for a living. My own things, on my own machines, up on HackTheBox and TryHackMe. I started writing port scanners and crawlers to figure out how the network actually talks, and it just stuck. These days that's turned into a toolbox I keep adding to.

Right now I'm working through a BSc (Hons) in Cyber Security & Ethical Hacking at Coventry University via Softwarica College in Kathmandu. It's a lot of theory, honestly, so I balance it out by rooting boxes and tearing apart malware samples on the side.

I'm not the guy with all the answers. I'm the guy who'll tinker on something for three days, break it in a new and interesting way, then write up what happened so nobody else hits the same wall.

Education:

BSc (Hons) Cyber Security & Ethical Hacking, Coventry University via Softwarica College, Kathmandu
Focus: Offensive Security, Malware Analysis, Cryptography (Red Team Mindset)

Technical Skills

How I rate myself on the stuff I actually reach for. These are honest numbers: can I read it, write it, and debug it without Googling every line. You won't catch me claiming I have everything memorized.
