About Me

After 5 years of building APIs and mobile apps, I found myself increasingly curious about how those same systems could be exploited, and that curiosity led me to cybersecurity.

I'm currently pursuing an Erasmus Mundus Joint Master's in Applied Cybersecurity (CyberMACS), where I'm developing offensive security skills by translating my software development background. My focus is on web application and API security, areas where I feel my dev experience provides useful context for understanding how vulnerabilities arise in real systems.

Some things I've been working on:

Penetration testing & vulnerability assessment (OWASP Top 10, IDOR, SQLi, Broken Access Control, Active Directory)
Building a defensive SIEM pipeline with Kibana, Elasticsearch, and Filebeat during my internship at A1 Macedonia
CTF competitions as a way to sharpen practical skills: 3rd place at CE3 (CRDF Global & SANS), ByteBreach Beyond Machine Cybersecurity Challenges, HTB Seasonal, Challenges and CTF, Tryhackme
