Finding the flaws others miss.

I combine hands-on testing with AI-assisted research to uncover web and API vulnerabilities, explain the risk, and help teams fix the root cause.

Security research with measurable impact.

Bug hunting

I enjoy testing websites and web apps for security vulnerabilities and figuring out why something behaves in a way it should not.

Responsible disclosure

When I find a valid issue, I report it privately with clear steps so the team can understand and fix it.

Sharing knowledge

I share useful lessons and writeups so other hunters and developers can learn from them.
