About
Prince is a final-year B.Sc. Information & Computer Systems student in Rajkot, India, currently interning as a Junior Laravel Developer. His work sits at the intersection of building and breaking: shipping MVC-driven PHP and MySQL applications during the day, then running vulnerability scans and network analysis with the Kali Linux toolkit on his own time.
He picked up Python and Bash along the way for scripting and automation, and treats documentation and reporting as part of the job, not an afterthought.
Off the clock: CTF challenges and guitar.
