About Me

I'm a full-stack developer with professional experience who's now pursuing education in cybersecurity through Thomas More's Data Science, Protection & Security program. After experience of building web applications, I became fascinated with the security challenges in modern development and decided to bridge that knowledge gap through study and hands-on practice with my homelab.

My Focus

  • Full-Stack Development

    Building end-to-end web applications with modern JavaScript frameworks, focused on clean architecture and performance.

  • Cybersecurity

    Pursuing a degree in Data Science, Protection & Security at Thomas More, with a focus on IAM and cybersecurity fundamentals.

  • AI & Automation

    Developing practical tools that leverage AI for automation, efficiency, and enhanced user experiences.

  • Homelab & Self-Hosting

    Running a personal homelab with Parrot OS for testing, development, and security practice.

Professional Journey

After gaining professional experience as a web developer, I decided to pursue a second degree in Data Science, Protection & Security at Thomas More University to formalize my cybersecurity knowledge. This academic path builds on my development foundation and allows me to create more secure, robust applications that address real-world security challenges.

Current Study Focus:

  • Identity & Access Management (IAM) principles and implementation
  • Cyber Crime Fundamentals and Legal Frameworks
  • Governance & Risk Management for information security
  • Practical application through my custom pentesting homelab

My goal is to bridge development and cybersecurity by building tools that are secure, practical, and built with protection in mind from the start.
