🎓 About Me

🐍 Python Developer, OOP Instructor & Aspiring Cybersecurity/GRC Analyst

I create educational content on programming, electronics, and maker projects. I have 13+ years of hands-on software engineering experience. Right now I'm transitioning into cybersecurity and information security governance, risk, and compliance (GRC). I'm building hands-on skills in network security, incident analysis, and security frameworks, while I keep teaching and building.

🔐 Cybersecurity Journey

  • Currently completing the Google Cybersecurity Certificate and studying for CompTIA Security+
  • Completed Deloitte Australia's Cyber Job Simulation (log analysis and incident investigation)
  • Building a home security lab with Kali Linux and Wireshark
  • Background: MSc in Advanced Computer Systems (Embedded Systems). Thesis on cryptographic hardware implementation in FPGA

🎓 Featured Course: Master Object-Oriented Programming

Build a Living Cell Ecosystem from Scratch

Learn OOP principles through hands-on project work in just 3.5 hours. Encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, and design patterns, all through practical application.

✨ What you'll build:

  • A fully interactive cellular ecosystem simulation
  • Real-world implementation of OOP design patterns
  • Modular, scalable code architecture
