What I Do
Penetration testing. Red team operations. OSINT. Reverse engineering and malware analysis. I simulate real-world adversaries to identify weaknesses before actual threat actors do — and when I find their tools, I take them apart.

Background
I grew up in Massachusetts. I served in the Infantry. I found security because I was good at finding things that weren’t supposed to be found.
This site is where I write about offensive security, OSINT, and reverse engineering. No fluff. No marketing. The work speaks for itself.
