Hey everyone! 👋 Hima Kartikeya here!
I just finished my Class 10 ICSE board exams and I am getting ready to start my polytechnic diploma journey in Andhra Pradesh. My absolute dream is to build a career in Cyber Security, but to keep my creative side active, I’m also a small-scale indie game developer.
