Professional Background

Currently, I work at Cloaked, a security and privacy company, where I serve as a Startup Janitor. My role encompasses a wide range of responsibilities including encryption, compliance, IT infrastructure, DevSecOps, and overall security.

I've had the privilege of being part of several startups throughout my career, each venturing into distinct domains - from kitchen equipment sales to Bitcoin mining solutions, cosmetics manufacturing, and software development in the security and privacy realm.

These experiences have taught me that startups can serve as fertile grounds for learning and connecting seemingly unrelated topics, while building diverse skill sets and broadening understanding of various industries.
