Designing for the edge, building for resilience. I break things to build them better.
I build
- secure systems.
- cloud infrastructure.
- event platforms.
- web applications.
- automation pipelines.
- edge networks.
- threat detection tools.
- developer tooling.
- resilient architectures.
- things that break (on purpose).
// 01 ——— who i am
architect developer entrepreneur?
I want to build products that actually help people and lead teams that can make a real dent. Startups, side projects, freelance — if there’s a problem worth solving, I’m in.
I live at the intersection of cyber, cloud, and development. Websites, apps, infrastructure — if it connects to the internet, I’m probably interested. Curious by nature, always learning something new.
My approach is smart work over hard work. I automate everything because I’m lazy, and I’ve turned that into an engineering philosophy. If a task can be scripted, it will be.

Projects
WiFiGuard (Thesis)
Built an Intrusion Detection System for Cyber-Physical Systems that uses Wi-Fi Channel State Information as a sensing layer. Implemented Variational Autoencoders to model normal network behavior and detect anomalies in real-time. The system improved threat detection accuracy by 30% compared to traditional signature-based methods, without requiring any additional hardware.
AWS Threat Monitoring
Designed and deployed a cloud surveillance architecture on AWS using CloudTrail for API logging, EventBridge for real-time event routing, and SNS for instant alert delivery. Built automated detection rules for root user activity anomalies, unauthorized API calls, and compliance violations.
Firewall & Encryption
Engineered a dual-layer security system combining a rule-based firewall with granular IP access control lists and a public-key encryption module built on super-increasing sequences. The firewall supports dynamic rule updates and logging, while the encryption system handles key generation, message encryption, and decryption with mathematical verification.
Vigenere Cipher Tool
Developed a cryptographic analysis tool that automates breaking Vigenere cipher encryptions. Implements Kasiski Examination to identify probable key lengths through repeated pattern analysis, and uses Index of Coincidence for statistical verification. Outputs ranked key length candidates with confidence scores.
Enterprise Threat Sims
Performed advanced vulnerability research and threat analysis through enterprise job simulations for AIG, ANZ, Mastercard, and Telstra. Identified and mitigated Zero-Day Log4j exploits, conducted penetration testing against enterprise infrastructure, and delivered risk assessment reports with remediation strategies covering the full spectrum from reconnaissance to post-exploitation analysis.
