Appiah Bismark

Also known online as Kwesi Larry (0xWizard) .

I'm a cybersecurity student focused on application security, bug bounty hunting, and security research.

I enjoy understanding how applications work, finding where they break, and learning how they can be built more securely. I also explore robotics, embedded systems, and other areas where software meets the physical world.
