I build security tools, play CTFs, and win the occasional hackathon.
I'm a CS freshman at Maryland, in ACES. Linux subteam for UMD CCDC. I'm aiming for AppSec or CNO, but still exploring ways to combine Cyber and CS.
Outside of coding, you can catch me playing geometry dash, watching kurzgesagt, or scrolling Wikipedia.
