About Me 🌌

CS student writing my dissertation on contactless payment protocols — how NFC/EMV systems work at the protocol level and where they break. Turns out the tap-to-pay experience billions of people use every day has some interesting underexplored attack surface. Finding vulnerabilities takes both deep understanding and creativity which I find fun

Alongside the research, I'm interning in ai automation, building automated systems and pipelines in python/js. Theory is cool but sometimes the simplest applications can be the most useful to businesses. I'm working on automaing different processes using Langchain/Lang Graphs, multi-agent n8n flows, trivial scraping scripts.

Lately I've been getting more hands-on with hardware: Arduino projects, and 3D printing in Bambu Studio for personal builds.

I care about tech that's safe, ethical, and built to create real net benefit.

I also keep a Substack where I write small tutorials
