# Writeups

![](/files/wPPGWdGFp0ms19VVCyMW)

Hi, I'm Jhaxx.

I'm on a self-directed path into offensive security, working toward the OSCP by way of homelabs and CTFs. My background is in sales and IT support, which means I came to this late and starting from scratch — and loving every second of it! I spend my time on HackTheBox and Hack Smarter, grinding CTFs, and documenting everything I learn along the way.

This space is where I track the journey — machines, write-ups, tools, rabbit holes. Mostly HTB and Hack Smarter Labs. Occasionally something breaks in an interesting way and that ends up here too. The OSCP is the target. Everything else is prep.
