About

I am an Information Security Professional based in Brisbane Australia.
I specialise in Network Security, Application Security, DevSecOps and Automation.
I have extensive experience in these and other security domains. I have been fascinated and intrigued by technology my whole life and have turned my passion into my career.

I enjoy helping people protect themselves from threats while increasing their awareness of the security landscape. I am customer focused and believe in security as an enabler rather than as a roadblock. I get satisfaction from helping customers achieve their goals as efficiently and securely as possible.

A passion of mine is using offensive security to deliver applications and services more securely. By using offensive security skills to find and eliminate vulnerabilities early on in the application lifecycle as well as to optimise application security controls, I am able to deliver applications with greatly increased security and availability.

I am also an avid developer and containerisation enthusiast who is passionate about application security and making it easier for developers to create secure applications. I enjoy automation and optimisation of orchestration services increasing application resilience and response to security events as well as creating and integrating security tools to CI/CD build chains.

I love the challenge and satisfaction of solving complex technical problems using innovation and creativity. I eat security for breakfast.

Volunteer Experience

  • Sponsor

    The Smith Family

    Children

    Research has shown that supporting a child's education is one of the most effective ways to help break the cycle of disadvantage. The Smith Family's sponsorship program enables you to give directly to a child in need so they don’t miss out on the opportunity to participate fully in their education, and create a better future for themselves.
