About

I build, break, and harden systems. I currently work at Vectra AI, which I joined following the acquisition of Netography. I am especially passionate about projects related to cybersecurity, international affairs, and security policy. As a developer I have experience developing backend services utilizing Python, Go, Java, and building web applications (HTML/CSS/JS). I've also worked with social justice nonprofits to expand their advocacy in the DMV area.
