Profile

Motivated and detail-oriented Master’s student specializing in Cybersecurity at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), with hands-on experience in penetration testing, application security, and vulnerability assessment. Passionate about strengthening system resilience through practical, research-based solutions. Currently seeking an internship, student assistant role, or Master's thesis project to apply technical skills and contribute to real-world cybersecurity challenges.

About

I am passionate about penetration testing and application security. I have reverse-engineered Android apps to uncover critical vulnerabilities and possess a strong understanding of OWASP Top 10 risks, such as SQL Injection, Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), and Insecure Data Storage.

Through academic projects and practical exercises, I have conducted vulnerability assessments, developed security scripts in Python, and applied the Cyber Kill Chain model to simulate real-world attack scenarios. I am highly motivated to contribute my skills and project experience toward strengthening cybersecurity operations, enhancing system resilience, and mitigating risks in professional environments.

My areas of expertise include cyber risk management, security automation, vulnerability assessment, and penetration testing. I have hands-on experience in reverse engineering Android applications, ethical hacking, incident response, and implementing security frameworks such as NIST and ISO 27001.
