About Me

I've always been driven by the idea of creating something that real people actually use. That's what drew me to computer science initially. I spent late nights sitting a little too close to the screen, tinkering with code, and building apps or websites while imagining a future where they are the next big thing. That rush led to many late nights of designing, deploying, and inevitably troubleshooting.

The more I learned, the more I began to realize how important it was to keep security in mind. I have come to appreciate how security has to be baked into every step of the development process. In a rapidly changing world where breakthroughs are broadcasted weekly, it is that much more important that we keep security at the forefront.

We have a growing need for people who are willing to think carefully about not only how a product can benefit a population, but also how to ensure that it is used only the way it was intended.
