Exploring network security — learning how Nmap works, practising on Linux, and understanding how networks are scanned and secured.
Teaching myself acoustic guitar from scratch — chord transitions, basic fingerpicking patterns, and building muscle memory for clean notes.
Starting Capture The Flag challenges to put concepts into practice — approaching problems methodically and reading writeups to improve.
Small Python scripts to automate things and learn how to work with the OS and network programmatically. Figuring it out as I go.
Honest levels, updated as I go

A hidden CTF — 5 flags across the site
Flags hidden in the source, robots.txt, the console, the footer and the terminal. Submissions are checked server-side against SHA-256 hashes, with per-IP rate limiting and a leaderboard.
Security headers + security.txt
Strict CSP with no inline scripts allowed (one hashed exception), HSTS, frame blocking, nosniff, a tight Permissions-Policy and a /.well-known/security.txt.
Case studies, writeups, command palette, 404
Deep-dive pages for the lyrics display and ClassSec, a writeups section, a Ctrl/⌘ K palette that can also ask the AI terminal, and a custom 404.
Faster — everything self-hosted
Fonts and smooth scrolling now load from this site, not third-party CDNs. Added link previews, favicons and a sitemap.
v0.3
2026·10·12
Full redesign — new visual system
Rebuilt every page on one shared design system: Geist + Instrument Serif type, a warm amber accent, calmer motion and a proper light theme. Dropped Tailwind CDN for a single lightweight stylesheet.
Selected work on the homepage
Lyrics display, School ERP, SnoozeSOC and the AI terminal now sit front and centre.
Vault entries are now HTML-escaped
Titles, artists and image URLs are escaped before rendering, so a bad entry can't inject markup.
v0.2
2026·04·10
AI terminal page
Replaced the static command-based terminal with a fully AI-powered one. Type anything and get real replies from my AI clone, with conversation context, follow-up suggestions and a live status bar.
Terminal background matched to site theme
Same background as the rest of the site for a consistent identity across pages.
Unified navigation
One nav style across Terminal, Work and Vault.
Goals updated to 2026
All "2025 goals" references updated across the AI terminal prompt and quick-access chips.
Skill matrix
Honest skill levels across dev, security and music.
Hardware rig panel
Spec sheet for the current machine.
Footer — Discord removed, email added
Replaced Discord with a direct email link.
v0.1
2026·03·29
First live version
Initial deploy with a dark/light theme system.
Navigation, Vault and theme toggle
Fixed top nav with blur and a sun/moon theme switch.
Tool stack & active projects
Cybersecurity and acoustic tool cards, plus four project cards with real images.
Social footer
Instagram, GitHub and contact links.
