Hello! I’m Dre.

also known as:

I’m currently a fourth year student at the University of Toronto, with a major in Mental Health Studies and a minor in Biology and Computer Science.

Outside of school, I enjoy playing CTFs (Capture The Flag). I play for UofTCTF and L3AK. I mainly focus on reverse engineering and binary exploitation challenges.

I interned at Trend Micro in the winter and summer of 2024, and the winter of 2025. A notable achievement I had while working there was finding a zero-day vulnerability in NVIDIA Container Toolkit, later assigned CVE-2025-23359.
