Nova Muel📧

About

Currently a junior undergraduate (ranked 3/72 with electives | 18/97 without electives), and a Pwn player of Tianxuan/Tianshu.

Currently, I am basically retired from CTF (although I don't think I was ever actively in it), and I am considering advancing into the academic field of security (system security).

Studying for a bachelor's degree in Cybersecurity at Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications, now doing research internships in the A&D group at vul337.

My current personal goals are University of Tokyo/National University of Singapore/Tsinghua University/Peking University/Top Five Universities CS/SEC related

My ultimate ideal is to live in Japan like links and then travel around the world to see the scenery.

It doesn't matter if you read the air or not, I don't want to read it myself, nor do I require others to read it, of course, you can also understand it as Low EQ.
