IT student building toward cybersecurity. Learning Python, earning certifications, and aiming for a future as a Security Professional.

About

"Every challenge is a learning opportunity."

I am an IELTS Instructor cum IT student building toward a Cybersecurity career, driven by a commitment to protecting people's privacy and data. I approach security methodically by analyzing problems carefully and paying close attention to detail. I also am actively pursuing certifications to build strong fundamentals in threat analysis and defense, treating every challenge as a learning opportunity.

I leverage AI tools to accelerate my own learning and develop study materials for my IELTS students which reflects both my adaptability and my interest in how emerging technology integrates into real workflows. Teaching IELTS also keeps me sharp on communicating concepts clearly.

Projects

I built small automation tools with n8n, and I treated each one as a chance to practice the habits I'm studying in security: isolating credentials, scoping permissions down to what's actually needed, and limiting the attack surface. More hands-on cybersecurity projects are on the way.

AI News Agent

A conversational AI agent built in n8n. A Gemini-powered agent with short-term memory takes a chat request, calls an RSS-read tool to pull fresh headlines on demand, and replies or sends the result straight to Gmail — all on request, no schedule needed.

Credentials for Gemini and Gmail live in n8n's encrypted credential store, never inline in the workflow — and the Gmail connection is scoped to send-only, not full mailbox access.

Daily News Digest

A scheduled n8n workflow that runs unattended every morning at 7 AM. It pulls and tags headlines from a list of RSS feeds, skips anything already sent so nothing repeats, compiles a digest, and emails it — no manual trigger required.

Runs on a fixed internal schedule rather than an exposed public webhook, and the "skip already sent" check doubles as a safeguard against reprocessing or replaying stale feed data.
