FIELD NOTES / OPEN CASE

▌

Cybersecurity engineer. I build systems that notice things, mostly detection pipelines and honeypots, and risk scores that tell someone what to fix first.

ABOUT

I'm an MS Cybersecurity candidate at Northeastern University's Khoury College, currently an AI Cybersecurity Intern at Abbott in Madison, Wisconsin, following a cybersecurity co-op at Exact Sciences. Most of my work is detection engineering and cloud security, with a steady side of GRC.

Before this, I completed a BTech in AI & Data Science, which still shapes how I approach security work: as a data problem first. My projects usually run from raw data to a written report.

Based Madison, WI / Boston, MA
Focus Detection engineering, malware analysis, cloud security, GRC
Currently AI Cybersecurity Intern, Abbott
Reading MITRE ATT&CK, NIST CSF 2.0
