About Khushi Thakkar

I’m a curious problem-solver who loves exploring how technology works—and how to keep it secure.I am pursuing my master’s in Cybersecurity at the University of Maryland. I enjoy tackling challenges such as ethical hacking, network defence, and real-world security scenarios.My journey began with a fascination for coding and quickly grew into a passion for protecting systems from evolving cyber threats. Along the way, I’ve gained hands-on experience through internships, CTF competitions, and personal projects that let me break things (safely!) and learn from the process.Outside of tech, I value creativity, teamwork, and sharing knowledge—whether it’s volunteering at awareness events or helping peers understand complex topics. My goal is to keep growing as a security professional while contributing to a safer digital world.
