// cse student, headed toward appsec — pune, india
I build full-stack software — a payments system a dance academy runs on, a forecasting tool for EV charging demand. Now I'm putting that same hands-on habit toward Application Security.
Four projects that mattered enough to see through — a client system, two independent builds, and one still in progress. Knowing how these get built is exactly what makes finding where they break useful.
Application Security first, then Cloud Security, then DevSecOps — in that order, with a clear bar to clear before moving to the next. This is the hands-on work behind that plan.
Picked up C and the web basics on my own, then made it formal through Infosys Springboard and LinkedIn Learning tracks in programming fundamentals and web development.
First real test under a clock, building something that had to work in front of judges, not just pass on my machine.
AI & Data Analytics with AICTE–Shell India (Edunet), then a Data Science stint at Codsoft — applying analysis and ML to problems I didn't pick myself, which turned out to be the point.
Shipped the EV forecast engine, KrishiNiti, and the NEET study tracker — then took on the Dance Academy system as an actual client project with a person depending on it working.
Coursework at Vishwakarma University, PortSwigger Academy labs, and client work running in parallel. Expected to graduate May 2028.
For a while I was building without much of a plan. Now I have one — and it's why this site looks the way it does.
Everything in Selected Work happened before the plan existed. It's still here because it's real proof I can ship systems people depend on, and that turns out to matter a lot in security — you can't secure what you don't understand how to build.
The plan itself: Application Security first, since it's the most direct use of that instinct. Cloud Security and DevSecOps after, once AppSec gives me the foundation both of those actually need.
Open to internships, freelance work, and anything security-adjacent that needs someone who checks whether the thing actually holds up.
