As a website pentester and security consultant, I specialize in identifying vulnerabilities, improving web application security, and delivering comprehensive risk assessments. However, computer science research and exploitation has always been a passion of mine as long as I can remember. I frequently spend my free time researching exploitation vectors, staying up to date on the latest and greatest in the industry, watching popular infosec podcasts, watching talks at defcon and all other major security conferences. Application manipulation and exploitation has always been more to me then something you study at college, or go to work to make it through the day until you clock out, it's an obsession that's always captivated me, when I am not working in exploitation, I'm researching it, instead of playing video games, I am researching and exploiting them and reporting findings to developers. With the popularization of cyber security upskilling platforms, I've found myself spending much of my free time continuing to hack web applications for fun outside of work.I've been in college for my major (IST with a Cyber Security focus) taking 8 courses a semester, compacting my entire bachelors program down to 2.5 semesters in 1 year's time, while also working two jobs, with a 3.9 GPA in the program thus far. I plan on focusing on certificates post graduation. Within my tenure I have also found critical exploitations in frameworks used by our college that I've collaborated with the department over to disclose to the proper parties and patch out, writing proof of concepts and detailed instructions for back-end engineering teams to dissect the issues.
