First-year CSE student building toward networking & cybersecurity — and shooting wildlife on the side.

currently: BTech CSE, first year
about

Networks, systems, and a good eye.

I am a BTech Computer Science Engineering student at St. Thomas College of Engineering and Technology, Chengannur — first year, still exploring, but the pull toward networking and cybersecurity has been consistent from the start. What draws me in is the puzzle of it: understanding how a system really works, then learning to secure it or break it apart to see why it fails.

Away from coursework, you will find me out with Photomates KSA chasing wildlife shots, most of which end up on Instagram (@joemanu.fx). Open to connecting with anyone — students, professionals, mentors — working in or around networking and cybersecurity. Always happy to trade ideas, learn from people further along, and find ways to build together.

Keepsake live — more to build

A lightweight, single-file web app for tracking birthdays, anniversaries, Onam, Vishu, and custom tasks — with a redemption score, countdown timers, panic alerts for upcoming dates, and AI-powered gift and greeting suggestions. Still a work in progress — more features and polish to come.

Photography

Member of Photomates KSA, a Saudi Arabia–based photography community — photowalks, and slowly learning to shoot wildlife.
