About me

I am a highly motivated and dedicated student currently pursuing a Diploma in Cybersecurity & Digital Forensics. I have a passion for leadership and a strong commitment to making a positive impact on the community. Actively participating in various community service initiatives, I am known for my willingness to go the extra mile to help others.

I’m a homelab hobbyist with a keen interest in server management and network security. My setup includes Apache Guacamole for remote access, Windows Server 2022 for robust management, Oracle Linux for stability and power, and Cisco Aironet and 1941 POE to setup network control (VLAN) and I prioritize security with OpenVPN for safe connections and use Nessus to stay ahead of vulnerabilities. Beyond the tech, I love exploring new solutions and staying at the forefront of digital innovation.
