💫 About Me:

Hi, I'm Yousuf
Learning how systems break (and how to fix them)
That’s pretty much my entire philosophy right now. I’m a Cybersecurity student at RIT (minoring in Finance), and most of my time is spent in the sweet spot between messing something up completely and figuring out the exact line of script that fixes it.
My pinned repos below cover the what, but here is a quick look at the how and the why.

What I’m Actually Doing:
* Breaking Networks: Setting up labs, capturing packets, and writing Python utilities to dissect exactly how data moves (and where it gets vulnerable).
* Automating Everything: If I have to do a task more than twice, I'll probably spend three hours writing a script to do it for me in three seconds.
* Bridging Tech & Finance: Exploring the intersection of security and financial data pipelines because tracking anomalies in a transaction is just as fun as tracking them in a network log.

When I'm completely disconnected from a terminal and not actively trying to figure out why a virtual machine won't boot, I sketch and doodle real-life scenery. It’s the only time I'm dealing with perspective and lines instead of syntax and firewalls.
