Profile

I am a 27-year-old computer science student with a deep passion for information security and privacy. Whether I'm in front of a screen or enjoying time offline, my constant companion is my beloved dog, Lucy, who faithfully accompanies me wherever I go. Below is a picture of us at DEEPSEC 2022.
