Breaking things
carefully,
since 2018.

Cyber security consultant at Cyberis. I lead web application and API penetration testing engagements, I am the service line lead of Cyber Essentials internally, and build tooling in Go and Rust. I hold a 2:1 in Computer Science from the University of Greenwich, and I believe the open source movement and ethical use of technology matter.
