Embedded, AI, Cloud & Network Security || ISWDP Cohort 7 (IISc) || Solutions Design and Architecture || GRC || Infosec Enthusiast & CTF Player · Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India

I'm a cybersecurity enthusiast based in Chennai. AI, Cloud, Network and Embedded security are my favorite security domains. Currently a Club Lead at DSC Sathyabama working on managing the club recruitment, events and future projects. I've participated in CTFs, Hackathons and built projects where I solved complex problems and designed systems. With a significant experience in working with and leading teams over my schooling and university , I have a knack for managing resources, documenting and creating processes. A polymath at heart, I love learning and researching about anything that I'm intrigued about. ( p.s. I'm also a huge fan of the arts and I'm a science nerd ! )
