[ About me ]

Hello!

I'm a Computational Systems Engineer with deep expertise in cybersecurity, specially offensive security. I conduct full-scope pentests, red team engagements and vulnerability research across web, network, Active Directory, and cloud environments.

I follow industry methodologies including PTES, OSSTMM, OWASP, ISSAF, and NIST 800-115, and I have a strong background in security governance, compliance, and AppSec auditing (SAST, DAST, SCA). I try to stay up to date doing CTFs and trainings.

Beyond computers, I like reading, cycling, and tea culture. I play the piano sometimes. Started hiking in 2026. I'm fluent in english (TOEFL C1 ↗) and french (DELF B2 ↗), and beginner in japanese.
