Passionate security researcher based in Seattle. I build secure software and break insecure software. I write security tools in Go, Python, and C++ and compete in CTFs.

I'm looking for work! Let's connect on LinkedIn.

• Tech The Right Way: Fullstack Engineer (July 2025 - Present). Built a browser-based SIP softphone and operator switchboard using SIP.js, WebRTC, Next.js, and TypeScript. I also do code reviews with Semgrep and built infrastructure automation in Go using the Proxmox API and Ansible.

• BSides Seattle: Good local cybersecurity conference. I've competed in the Attack/Defend CTF here.

• lazyRecon: Recon automation tool in Go. Subdomain enumeration, alive checks, technology detection. My go-to for starting bug bounty recon.
• snoops: Packet analyzer with a TUI in Go. For when Wireshark is overkill.
• stepper: WIP tool to grab CTF flags from binary registers. C++.
• HookTesting: Windows hooking research. Inline hooks and registry hooking in C++.

I mostly focus on web and misc challenges in CTFs.

• HushCon West - Seattle, WA (2024): Talked about polyglot file techniques to 300+ people. Polyglots are files that are valid as multiple file formats at the same time, which gets weird fast from a security perspective. Slides are on GitHub. I'd love to do more talks in the future.

• CompTIA Security+

• openpilot: Fork of comma.ai's openpilot. Car hacking is fun.
