Hello! I'm a high school student and CTF player based in Northern Virginia, and an officer of tjcsc since June 2026. The team is currently #5 globally on CTFtime for 2026 and the top ranked US team. That ranking is across all divisions, not a student-only bracket.

Day to day that means writing challenges, giving weekly lectures to club members on web exploitation, and helping organize TJCTF and WinterCTF. Most of all it means competing. The officer team is the group that plays events under tjcsc, and that is where the ranking comes from.

My main category is web, and I'm branching out into pwn and rev as secondary categories.

Outside of CTFs, I do web dev and some competitive programming on the side, plus challenge building when I get a good idea. I also co-founded H.O.N.K., a game studio, with three friends after we won 8bit jam.

I like buttered toast.
