When I close my IDE, you might catch me:
- ποΈ Sim Racing: Currently tearing up Le Mans Ultimate, iRacing, and F1 25 with my Moza R16 setup β yes, I have the official Belgian Esport driving license and I'm still learning the ropes but loving every corner
- πΈ Photography: Capturing beautifully engineered machines whenever I can β there's something about the curves of a well-designed car that just hits different
- π CTF Hunting: Because breaking things (legally) is the best way to learn how to build secure systems
Fun fact: I speak three languages fluently (French, English, Arabic) but my code comments are... let's say "internationally inconsistent" π
π‘ Building systems that scale, breaking challenges that don't, and racing lines that probably won't make me faster
Thanks for stopping by! Feel free to explore my repos or reach out β always down to chat about tech, security, or why that one corner in Spa-Francorchamps is absolutely cursed.
