## About

I'm Pranav S Chakrapani, a 2nd\-year B\.Tech CSE \(Cybersecurity\) student at GM University, Davangere\. My work lives at the intersection of security, intelligence, and hardware — from flashing ESP32 firmware and building IoT threat detection systems to deploying full\-stack AI platforms that understand Hinglish financial conversations\. What drives me is a simple belief: the best defense starts with understanding the offense\. That mindset shows up across everything I build — whether it's a privacy\-aware entity resolution engine for campus security, an AI\-powered smoke detection dashboard, or a multilingual financial intelligence app built for the Indian market\. My stack spans Python, TypeScript, React, FastAPI, C\+\+, Kali Linux, Wireshark, Raspberry Pi, and LLM APIs \(Groq, LLaMA, Whisper\) — but tools are secondary\. I care more about the problem being solved\. I've competed at national and international hackathons, shipping production\-ready solutions under pressure\. Each one has sharpened my ability to move fast, think in systems, and build things that actually work in the real world\. Currently exploring: ethical hacking, embedded systems security, multilingual AI, and AI\-driven financial intelligence
