Self-taught programmer focused on low-level systems work in C/C++, Rust, and Python. I spend most of my free time building useful open-source tools for Linux. I upload source-only (most of the time) so you can compile it yourself. That way you know exactly what's running.

I build practical utilities that solve real problems. Most of my projects involve:

• Linux kernel operations (modules, filesystems, device management)
• Systems programming (direct hardware interaction, minimal abstractions)
• Command-line tools (fast, efficient, no bloat)
• DIY approach (prefer understanding the system over using abstractions)

What it does: Complete drive management utility for Linux—format, encrypt, clone, analyze, benchmark, recover, and forensics operations on physical drives.

Tech Stack: C++, OpenSSL (libssl/libcrypto), lsblk, parted, cryptsetup, dd, smartctl, e2fsck

Key Features:

• Format and partition drives
• Full-disk encryption/decryption
• Disk cloning with verification
• Drive fingerprinting & forensics
• Disk space analysis & benchmarking
• Metadata extraction and recovery
• Dry-run mode for safety
• Centralized command execution abstraction

Status: Feature-complete, ~3200+ lines of production C++

• x86 Assembly — Understanding how the CPU actually works
• Advanced C/C++ — Memory models, optimization techniques
• Kernel internals — Device drivers, syscalls, module loading mechanisms

Languages I use:

• C
• C++
• Rust
• Python
• Kotlin

Linux & Systems & Embedded Systems:

• Comfortable at the command line
• Shell scripting and build systems (Make)
• Filesystem operations and encryption

Working on expanding my systems programming toolkit:

• Embedded systems
