🧬 Who I am

Seasoned DevSecOps leader, cloud architect, and entrepreneur on a mission to make robust cybersecurity accessible to organisations of every size — from SMBs to governments.

Over a decade securing Fortune 100 companies, scaling global platforms, and leading high-performing engineering teams across some of the highest-stakes environments in finance and technology — including the NYSE, NASDAQ, and FS-ISAC threat intelligence repositories. Built automation tooling now trusted by Google, Worldpay, and Chase.

Today I channel all of that into one thing: BestDefense.io.

Cost and complexity should never stand in the way of resilience.
