Hey, I'm Ryan πŸ‘‹

A cybersecurity-focused developer based in Houston, TX. I build security tools, automate things, and break stuff (ethically).


πŸ” About Me

  • 🎯 Goal: Breaking into cybersecurity
  • 🐍 Currently learning: Python, networking, ethical hacking
  • πŸ€– Latest project: AI-powered Discord bots using the Anthropic Claude API
  • 🌱 Working through: TryHackMe learning paths
  • 🏰 Fun fact: All my tools have a Lord of the Rings theme

πŸ› οΈ Tech Stack

Python Discord Git GitHub Railway VS Code Linux


πŸ€– Middle-earth Bot Collection

Two AI-powered Discord bots built from scratch and deployed 24/7 on Railway β€” each with their own personality, purpose, and command set.

Bot Character Purpose
πŸ§™ GandalfBot Gandalf the Grey/White Wisdom, riddles, lore, quests, fellowship
βš”οΈ AragornBot Aragorn/Strider Leadership, battles, heritage, rally speeches

πŸ” Cybersecurity Toolkit

A growing collection of Python security tools β€” built from scratch as part of my cybersecurity learning journey. Each tool teaches a core security concept and they are designed to work together as a complete reconnaissance and analysis toolkit.

πŸ” Reconnaissance

Project Description Concepts
πŸ“‘ Ping Sweeper Discover live hosts on a network Multithreading, ICMP, reverse DNS
πŸ” Port Scanner Find open ports on a specific host Networking, sockets, TCP
🌐 OSINT Web Scraper Gather public intelligence from websites HTTP, BeautifulSoup, fingerprinting
πŸ”Ž Subdomain Enumerator Find subdomains via brute force and CT logs DNS, Certificate Transparency, threading

βš”οΈ Offensive Tools

Project Description Concepts
πŸ’₯ Hash Cracker Crack MD5/SHA hashes via dictionary attack Hashing algorithms, dictionary attacks
πŸ”‘ Caesar Cipher Encrypt, decrypt, and brute force messages Cryptography, ASCII, brute force

πŸ›‘οΈ Defensive Tools

Project Description Concepts
πŸ‘οΈ File Integrity Monitor Detect unauthorized file changes in real time SHA256, JSON, security logging, SIEM
πŸ” Password Checker Analyze password strength and entropy Regex, security logic, entropy

πŸ”— How the Tools Work Together

πŸ“‘ Ping Sweeper β†’ Find live hosts on network ↓ πŸ” Port Scanner β†’ Find open ports on live hosts ↓ 🌐 OSINT Scraper β†’ Gather intel from web presence ↓ πŸ”Ž Subdomain Enum β†’ Map all subdomains of target ↓ πŸ’₯ Hash Cracker β†’ Crack any exposed hashes ↓ πŸ‘οΈ File Integrity β†’ Monitor for changes after assessment

πŸ“š Currently Learning

  • 🐧 Linux β€” WSL Ubuntu, command line fundamentals
  • 🎯 TryHackMe β€” working through Pre-Security and Jr Penetration Tester paths
  • πŸ” Networking β€” TCP/IP, ports, protocols, recon techniques
  • 🐍 Python β€” building real security tools from scratch

πŸ—ΊοΈ Roadmap

  • Keylogger (educational)
  • Network Packet Sniffer
  • Brute Force Login Tool
  • More Fellowship bots β€” Legolas, Gimli, Sam
  • CompTIA Security+ certification
  • CompTIA Network+
