Entrepreneur, Cyber Security Specialist, and Full Stack Developer.
Building things that
matter.
I'm an entrepreneur, cyber security specialist, and full stack developer based in Sydney, Australia. I started my career bridging the gap between business strategy and technical security, and today I protect critical financial infrastructure at the Reserve Bank of Australia.
I hold a Bachelor of Information Technology from UTS, sub-majoring in Networking and Cyber Security, where I graduated with the University Medal and a near-perfect GPA through the selective Co-operative Scholarship Program. I combine that foundation with hands-on engineering experience across cloud security, full-stack development, and artificial intelligence.
Outside the screen, I train Muay Thai and calisthenics - disciplines that sharpen focus, resilience, and the drive to keep levelling up.
Honours & Recognition
A track record of academic excellence and recognition.
Where I've worked
From business analysis to security engineering at Australia's most trusted institutions.
Protecting critical financial infrastructure through strategic and adaptive security solutions. Leading advanced threat analysis and developing innovative approaches to safeguard Australia's central banking systems.
Ensured infrastructure alignment with 18 CIS Critical Security Controls. Optimised security operations for AWS EKS clusters, Docker containers, and Kubernetes deployments. Managed firewall rules, incident response, and SIEM log onboarding.
Performed E8 Maturity Modelling and ISM Mapping for ACSC standards compliance. Conducted security control assessments, developed technical documentation, and automated security metrics reporting.
Bridged technical security requirements with business objectives. Led security program initiatives and provided analytical insights to enhance organisational security posture.
Discipline carries over.
The same mindset that drives my work fuels my training. Consistency, resilience, and always pushing limits.
Muay Thai
The art of eight limbs. Muay Thai is where I sharpen mental toughness and stay grounded. Every session is a reminder that growth lives on the other side of discomfort - a principle that translates directly to building businesses and solving hard problems.
Calisthenics
Bodyweight mastery is the ultimate test of patience and progressive overload. From levers to muscle-ups, calisthenics teaches you that consistent small improvements compound into serious results - the same approach I take with every project I build.
Things I've built
Auto-synced with GitHub. From security tools to smart contracts - shipping code across the stack.
Technical toolkit
Drag to explore. The technologies, platforms, and frameworks I work with.
Let's connect.
Whether it's a venture, a role, or just a conversation - I'm always open to hearing from good people.
