GitHub bio:
I'm a self-taught developer and ethical-hacker passionate about next-gen AI solutions, data science, and building systems that scale.
My journey began in childhood, tinkering with MS-DOS and experimenting with (white-hat) flood-ping attacks. I was lucky to have an uncle who worked as a Senior Dev at Microsoft — he introduced me to C#, Visual Basic, and fundamental programming concepts. This intro set the course for a lifelong love of breaking and re-building Tech.
TechEd and the future of AI + Robotics. Nano-bots injected into our bloodstream to regulate health... World domination.
