My journey into tech started when I was just 10 years old with a book and Small Basic. But the real spark came from my curiosity as a middle schooler, I wasn’t just playing games; I was trying to manipulate them. Modding game code to gain an advantage was my first real "handshake" with the world of cyber security. By 13, I had met Kali Linux OS, spending my free time exploring and analyzing built-in tools.

During university, I shifted from using existing tools to building my own, and even developed my own game from scratch. My internship in Test Engineering was a turning point. For me, testing and security are two sides of the same coin: both require a mindset of pushing systems to their absolute limits and feeding them extreme inputs to uncover the unexpected. I still find immense joy in "breaking things" to understand how to build them back better.

I’ve been working on some TypeScript projects recently, and I still use Python to script out stuff for my cyber security work. Professionally, I’m a Test Engineer Intern focused on endpoint security testing, basically poking around systems to see where they might break. I’m into the tech scene in general, so I’ll jump into Hackathons, CTFs, or tech meetups whenever I have the time.

When I’m not working:

Game Dev & Play: I do some game development as a hobby. Minecraft is my absolute favorite game, it never gets old.

Touching the Grass: I hit the gym whenever I’m not buried under deadlines or busy doing typical tech guy stuff.

Reading: Kinyas ve Kayra is the one for me. It’s pure, real and raw philosophy.

What Else?

I’ve been diving into aviation research and messing around with music production on my MIDI keyboard, just some good ways to swap the code editor for something else.

🚀 I'm always open to connecting with fellow tech enthusiasts, developers, and security researchers. Whether it's to collaborate on a project or just sharing information, let's build something cool together!
