Hello Friend

I am a security researcher, ethical hacker, penetration tester, and software developer with more than a decade of hands-on experience in web application security, vulnerability research, and secure software development. I have responsibly disclosed hundreds of vulnerabilities to organizations including Meta, Yahoo, Intel, and Swisscom. My work sits at the intersection of security and software engineering, with a strong focus on automation, research, and building practical solutions to complex security problems.

Alongside a long history of bug bounty research and professional pentesting, I have built production software and security products, including Varanid and, today, Volerion, where I work on AI-assisted vulnerability intelligence. This combination gives me both an attacker’s perspective and a developer’s understanding of how systems are designed, shipped, and secured. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Cyber Security, completed cum laude.

I have been invited to more than a dozen live-hacking events. Highlights include placing third out of 100 researchers at Meta’s BountyCon in Singapore, winning first place with team BBAC at BountyConEdu in Madrid, and participating in Intigriti’s Project Circuit Breaker for Intel in Lisbon and HackerOne’s H1-702 in Las Vegas. At multiple Hack The Hague editions, my teams received the Most Advanced Hack Award and the Hackademics Award. I have also attended DEF CON 26, 29, and 30, HITB, SHA2017, and MCH2022.

Outside of work, I am passionate about fitness, motorcycles, and traveling.
