What I’m Looking For

Seeking opportunities as a Security Advocate, Security Engineer, or Developer Evangelist where I can merge my technical expertise, public speaking experience, and creative security research to make a measurable impact.

Open to roles in red/blue team tooling, SOAR automation, detection engineering, developer relations, or community-driven security training. I excel at creating tools, breaking defenses, and teaching others how to defend against them.
