About Me

I'm a cybersecurity enthusiast with a growing focus on offensive security.

I've completed the eJPT, and I'm currently preparing for the ICCA, building hands-on tools like Infiltr8, and sharing what I learn through blog posts, CTFs, and practical labs.

I'm also starting A-levels with all A*-A GCSE grades, as well as an iGCSE Chemistry high achiever award in Saudi Arabia - so I thrive under pressure and love deep learning.

Outside of cyber, I’ve built a successful e-commerce business (mypraisebeads) from scratch generating over $25,000 in revenue, specialising in handcrafted prayer beads. I've handled everything from web dev and customer service to bookkeeping and product design, which has taught me discipline, initiative, and problem-solving.

Let’s connect if you’re building something cool in the cyber space - or if you need a motivated, hardworking, early-career contributor.

Projects

A Python CLI (command line interface) tool for basic web application penetration testing tasks. It brings together simple, yet practical tools like subdomain discovery, directory scanning, SQL injection testing, and more. This project has helped solidify my foundations in offensive security and programming. https://github.com/hmad-sec/Infiltr8
