hey, i'm Isah
I break smart contracts before the bad guys do, and build Web3 stuff that doesn't break. Certified in appsec, network defense and threat intel, with real reps from internships, audit contests and independent protocol ships.
nice to meet you!
Security nerd with a builder's heart. Here's the quick tour.
the short version
I'm a security researcher and blockchain developer who lives across smart contract auditing, web application penetration testing, and DeFi protocol development. My reps come from competitive audit contests, bug bounty programmes, and shipping production Web3 protocols of my own.
A full-stack blockchain engineering background means I audit from the inside out, tracing vulnerabilities through architecture and business logic instead of just running scans. Comfortable on Web3 and Web2 attack surfaces alike, and every engagement ends with written reports, proof-of-concept scripts, and remediation guidance.
