I'm Pragyan Karki
A curious BIT student at MIT who loves tinkering with cloud stuff, breaking (and fixing) things in Linux, and figuring out how to keep systems safe. I believe the best security is the kind you build in from day one.

About Me
I'm currently pursuing my Bachelors in Information Technology at Model Institute of Technology in Kathmandu. My journey into tech started with curiosity about how things work under the hood — and that curiosity hasn't stopped since.
These days, I'm deep into cloud platforms and cybersecurity. I love the challenge of making systems not just work, but work securely. My Operating Systems course gave me hands-on experience with process scheduling, file systems, and Linux shell utilities — and honestly? I kind of fell in love with the terminal.
When I'm not coding or configuring AWS, you'll find me at the MIT Entrepreneurship Club, brainstorming how early-stage teams can use cloud-native tools to move fast without breaking things.

Projects
This very site, deployed on AWS! Using EC2 for compute, S3 for static assets, and Route 53 for DNS with a custom .com.np domain. Includes security groups, HTTPS/SSL, and least-privilege IAM roles.
Hands-on OS lab exercises on Ubuntu VM. Documented shell commands, process management, and file system navigation in a formal lab report.
Practicing least privilege by auditing IAM policies. Exploring identity-based vs resource-based policies, role assumptions, and permission boundaries.
