About Me

Hello, my name is Kinga, also known by the nicknames Memoey and Agnik, and this is my website. It is still under construction.

I began my programming career in high school with simple Python algorithms. At university, I started learning C# with the .Net framework, I’ve chose C# as I wanted to become a game developer. I used it in both personal and team projects. One of my major bachelor’s degree projects involved creating a job recruiting website with a team. This project allowed me to delve into the full app development process, including team management and deployment.

Later driven by trends and study program I gained base experience in AI world. For my master’s thesis, I created an AI model for acoustic analysis of a forest ecosystem. It used convolutional neural network that was trained on a set of recordings from public repositories.

Professionally, I switched to Java, but in my private projects, I still prefer Python. Recently, I’ve been exploring Go and JavaScript (via Exercism), the latter proving valuable in my cybersecurity pursuits. Currently, I’m focusing on FastAPI and building foundational Python projects.

In 2023, I delved into Kubernetes and Ansible through KodeKloud, tackling challenges and practical tasks. This led to creating Ansible playbooks for automating Docker and Kubernetes (Minikube) setups. I’ve also been developing a home lab using Raspberry Pi clusters.

My current focus is configuring a Proxmox node on repurposed hardware and learning Terraform for infrastructure automation. My 2025 goal is to establish a comprehensive learning environment for Kubernetes administration, local application hosting, and honing my DevOps skills.

Cybersecurity Enthusiast Link to heading

I have always focused on using applications and products that respect user privacy. A few years ago, I began exploring cybersecurity through videos, conferences, and HackTheBox Academy. However, during my studies, I did not have enough time to focus on it. At the end of 2023, I joined Sekurak Academy, which boosted my cybersecurity learning path.

I started doing simple CTF challenges, PortSwigger Academy, and TryHackMe labs. Then, I become a participant in the Sekurak Academy Hacker training program, which introduced me to realistic web application pentesting and facilitated my participation in team-based CTF competitions. I’m now a member of the MindCrafters team, occasionally participating in various security challenges.
