Go Big or Go HOME!

Today is my birthday, and I’m celebrating it twice!

First and foremost, I thank God.
Without faith, strength, and guidance, I would never have reached this point.
Every step forward was possible because I was never truly walking alone.

From the beginning, I have lived by one motto:

“Go Big or Go HOME!”

The Journey

My Journey in the cybersecurity world was far from easy. I had no money, no degree, and no support. Only hunger, determination, and an endless desire to learn and to be the best hacker I could be.
The journey began with nothing except belief in myself.

I started from the bottom and built everything from scratch. I studied relentlessly, sacrificing comfort, time, and what many would call a “normal life”.
There were moments of complete exhaustion, but I knew that if I kept learning and pushing forward, results would eventually come.

Raising the Bar

Two years ago, after countless ups and downs and hundreds of projects, I realized it still wasn’t enough. So, I decided to put a true stamp and formally validate my skills.

Today, I’m glad to share that I have officially completed the OffSec Certifications.

During this time, I also managed Zero-Defense Labs full-time as Head of Offensive Security, working with diverse projects and clients, while simultaneously performing penetration testing and leading research projects.

I had a clear goal, to prove to myself what I always believed.

No Hocus-Pocus - Only 200% Focus

Gratitude & What’s Next

I’d like to thank OffSec for the high-quality content and challenging labs.
The experience truly pushed me forward and significantly sharpened my skills.

Now I begin a new chapter with clarity, confidence, and faith knowing that the hardest roads lead to the greatest destinations.

Happy Birthday to me 🎉
May the road ahead be filled with a Good Life and Great Success.

To anyone out there struggling to find their way, remember that with determination, focus, and faith, anything is possible.

Thank you for reading.
