Computer Science student with a foundation in software engineering since vocational high school. I specialise in backend development using Golang, with hands-on experience building RESTful APIs, web scraping pipelines, and full-stack applications.

My thesis focuses on designing JWT-based authentication for Go APIs to actively prevent Man-in-the-Middle attacks — where security meets systems design.

Highly proficient in Linux environments, I care about writing clean, secure, and maintainable code.
