About Me

Hi, I’m Darsh! I recently completed my MSc in Cybersecurity Risk Management at the University of Galway and on Stamp 1G visa. I’m driven by a strong interest in offensive security, ethical hacking, and identifying security weaknesses before they can be exploited. Through my academic projects and internship experience, I’ve gained hands-on exposure to security assessments, vulnerability research, network security, and developing intelligent security solutions using machine learning. I currently hold the eJPT certification and preparing for OSCP to further strengthen my practical penetration testing expertise. Outside of work, I solve labs and play esports, exploring the competitive side of tech.
