I work at the edges of low-level systems, kernel security engineering, hypervisor attack surfaces, covert channel research. Things that break in ways most people never see, and even fewer can explain when they do.

I am fascinated by what happens beneath the surface. The very core of a system. That unending curiosity the constant need to understand what's really going on, is what pulled me deeper into the kernel, into subsystems, into the places where a single wrong assumption quietly brings everything down. I discovered early on that documenting everything matters just as much as understanding it. In this space, if it isn't written down, it didn't happen.

My first published research documented a bidirectional audio covert channel across VM boundaries in default QEMU/KVM deployments a channel that existed in plain sight, in a stack everyone trusted. I keep going deeper from there.

But this is not really a profile about credentials.

This is about what it actually costs to build something real. The doubt that comes before the breakthrough. The long sessions where nothing works. The strange feeling of loving a craft that constantly humbles you.

I write, document and share because I want you to see yourself in here somewhere. Not the polished version of someone who already made it, the honest version of someone still in the middle of it, choosing to keep going anyway.

Whatever you are building, you are not as far behind as you think.
