About Me

Cybersecurity &
DevSecOps Enthusiast

I'm a motivated dual-degree student pursuing BCA (IGNOU) and B.A. English Honours (Delhi University) β€” a combination that gives me a uniquely human-and-technical perspective on cybersecurity challenges.

I have hands-on exposure through 8 Forage virtual internships with leading firms including Deloitte, Mastercard, AIG, TCS, and Commonwealth Bank β€” covering IAM, threat intelligence, phishing defense, fraud detection, and incident response.

Strong discipline, adaptability, and a growth mindset drive me to continuously apply theoretical knowledge to real-world security problems.
