Building defenses,
not just code.

I'm a Computer Science and Economics student at Boston University with a passion for cybersecurity. I hold an active Secret Security Clearance which I obtained during my time at MIT Lincoln Laboratory.

I enjoy working in the intersection of automation and cybersecurity - engineering workflows that detect, respond to, and contain threats at scale. Whether it's proactive threat hunting or building AI-powered security pipelines, I bring both precision and creativity to every challenge.
