About Me

Investigator, builder, and lifelong learner exploring how automation can accelerate trustworthy security.

My path combines forensic science, cyber investigations, and Python engineering. I enjoy transforming fragmented, manual processes into scripted workflows that keep evidence intact and surface the right intelligence for responders.

Whether I am dissecting a compromised endpoint or wiring analytics for a café, the goal is the same: sharpen clarity, automate the repeatable, and help people act with confidence. I stay active in open source, continuing education, and digital forensics communities.

Forensic Craft

Skilled in Autopsy, FTK Imager, EnCase, and Wireshark for defensible evidence handling.

Automation

Python-centric tooling for scrapers, data pipelines, and operational dashboards.

People

Collaborative communicator who enjoys translating investigations for both technical and non-technical teams.
