It all began in highschool, when Laurentiu first started his path in the computer science journey. Initially he started with C++, and fell in love quickly with the prospect of learning to develop software. Thanks to his passion for chess, his first computer program was a console-based ASCII chess game developed in C++. After a while, during university, Laurentiu started to experiment with other OOP programming languages, like Java, Kotlin or Python. He started to play with different tech stacks and frameworks, developing and publishing software apps for Android devices. However, things started to change when Laurentiu decided to explore the world of cybersecurity. He started to go to security hackathons, CTF events, and completed numerous challenges on websites like overthewire.org. At the same time, he realized it might be a good idea to document his journey using short videos, and then he thought that he can become a lecturer, helping people learn more about tech.
