"學歷並非終點,實力才是起點;用熱情編寫程式,創造自己的未來。"
"Education is not the end, but ability is the beginning. Code with passion and create your own future."
I believe that creativity, determination, and continuous learning can overcome any traditional barrier. From identifying vulnerabilities in university systems to building full-stack applications, I prove that code speaks louder than credentials.
Passion drives innovation, skills build the foundation, and perseverance creates opportunities.
- 🔭 Currently building: Security One AI SOC platform & next-gen WAF @ IntelliTrust
- 🧪 Currently researching: LLM fine-tuning for offensive & defensive security workflows
- 🌱 Currently learning: Advanced penetration testing, red-team tradecraft, on-prem GPU deployment
- 🎯 Goals: Ship commercial AI-SOC products, publish original CVE research, mentor the next generation of security engineers
- 💡 Always exploring: Where AI, security, and full-stack engineering intersect
I reported CVSS 10 RCE & SQL Injection vulnerabilities in my own university's system. Instead of getting in trouble, they hired me as their IT Consultant — and a year later I'm now leading SOC & WAF R&D at IntelliTrust.
