About

The Engineer

I'm a full-stack engineer and CS student who treats security as a first-class feature, not a checkbox. Every app I build, from enterprise file-sharing platforms to custom TLS tunnels, is designed to withstand real-world attacks from day one.

I wear every hat: engineering, product, security, DevOps, and infrastructure. I manage my own Arch Linux server with 7.3TB of shared storage, run production WireGuard VPNs, and build CI/CD pipelines with automated security scanning.

My approach is simple: build fast, but build it right. I bake OWASP protections, secure auth, and hardened deployments into the foundation so you can ship confidently.

Security First

Every architecture decision starts with threat modeling. Security isn't added later: it's in the foundation.

Production Tested

My projects run on real servers serving real traffic. Not demos, not tutorials: deployed and operational.

Clean Engineering

Well-tested code, clear documentation, proper CI/CD. I build systems that other engineers can maintain.

Defense in Depth

Layered security from network to application: VPN, firewall, auth, input validation, encryption. Every layer matters.
