About

I'm a cybersecurity student from Portugal focused on offensive security, penetration testing and Linux-based systems.

I build practical security tools, maintain technical documentation and experiment with systems through personal projects and a developing homelab.

My current path is centered around understanding how systems work, how they fail, and how they can be assessed from an offensive security perspective.
