About
I’m a seasoned security researcher who transitioned into Tech Recruitment. Not the typical career path. My journey started at 15 with game mods, evolved into system administration and security research. Obsessed with understanding vulnerabilities, breaking things apart, seeing how they worked. That background gives me an edge now - I can spot technical talent others miss.
My path to Tech Recruitment wasn’t conventional:
- Began programming at 15 with LUA, developing modifications for games
- Developed network security expertise through managing gaming servers, breaking things to understand them
- Built a reputation in cybersecurity communities as a researcher specializing in malware analysis
- Co-founded a cloud computing and cybersecurity company that was later acquired
- Leveraged my security research background to transition into Tech Recruitment, now working with Korn Ferry and specializing in leadership roles for Pharmaceutical, Life Sciences, Aerospace & Defense, and Enterprise IT sectors

Philosophy
I believe innovation emerges at the intersection of diverse disciplines. My transition from security research to Tech Recruitment has demonstrated that novel ideas often arise in unexpected contexts.
