01 // Origin & Background
Who I Am & What I Do
I am a Computer Science & Engineering undergraduate at Jamia Hamdard University, New Delhi, with a strong focus on Network Security, Penetration Testing fundamentals, and Software Development.
My approach to technology is hands-on and practical. I spend my time in lab environments analyzing network traffic, testing wireless security configurations, auditing systems, and engineering functional software utilities.
My core strength lies in technical problem solving, understanding system architectures and network protocols, and developing working security tools to solve real-world problems.
