aka M4TR1X
I build custom Python + bash scripts, web projects with nodejs + react or static HTML & CSS. On top I develop everything from a cybersecurity perspective, to minimise the attack surface. I'm studying Cybersecurity & Cloud at AP Hogeschool in Antwerp, Belgium.

About & Studies
I'm a cybersecurity student who was drawn to security from the age of 12. After being hacked multiple times as a kid, I turned that experience into a passion for understanding what was happening and, most importantly, how to defend against it.
To strengthen security, I believe in thinking beyond conventional boundaries and understanding how attackers operate. Only by exploring the grey areas responsibly can we identify major threats and, most importantly, neutralise them.
Most of my work starts as automation, a task I got tired of doing by hand, and grows from there. I like small tools that do one thing properly, clean interfaces, and code someone else can still read in six months.
Outside of my work, I make sure to stay up to date with the latest exploits and security issues. In my opinion, one of the most important parts of working in cybersecurity is continuously learning and keeping yourself informed.
