Who I am

Highly skilled professional in Cyber and Information Technologies with extensive experience in security and technology. I assess clients' needs and provide best-tailored solutions that enhance their overall infrastructure and protect against cyber threats.

Beyond the technical stack, I bring a rare interdisciplinary edge as a criminology and clinical criminology expert — applying behavioral science and criminal psychology to threat actor profiling, cybercriminal ecosystems, and the human factors behind security incidents.

Strong leadership abilities honed through years of leading cross-functional teams, managing large-scale environments, and delivering intelligence to organizations worldwide.
