The short version.

I'm a third-year cybersecurity undergraduate at SLIIT in Sri Lanka. My focus is offensive security — but I write detection logic with the same rigor I write exploit code.

I got into security the same way most people do — broke something I shouldn't have, got curious, kept going. The difference is what stuck: not just the "getting in" part, but the engineering on the other side. Writing a Suricata rule that catches your own exploit is a uniquely satisfying loop.

Day to day I'm grinding PortSwigger Academy and HackTheBox boxes, building tools in TypeScript and Python, and slowly accumulating the embedded-systems knowledge to do meaningful WiFi and IoT research.

I'm looking for an internship where I can work on real targets with people who care about doing it well. I'm happy with red, blue, or purple — what matters is the people and the work.
