I'm just a girl who fell in love with hacking culture through her own curiosity around game modding, engineering and Soma FM. Reverse engineering, pentesting, creating open-source tooling and gardening are my hobbies. Building large systems and managing projects is my job. I love playing support roles, you'll catch me floating through tech/hacking communities regularly providing resources where I can. Thinking about how to open doors and carve paths for others brings me joy.

Professionally, I'm a Systems Engineer, Pentester and Developer with proven experience supporting large-scale, mission-critical environments. I have years of expertise in device management, security operations, application modernization, service migrations, and workflow automation in public-sector environments. A strong background in incident response, endpoint security, and network troubleshooting, with a focus on delivering scalable, high-performance distributed solutions. I've led platform modernization initiatives, including transitioning legacy systems to modern architectures while maintaining compliance with FedRAMP, StateRAMP, CISA, and NIST standards. Recognized for driving secure, user-focused solutions and effectively collaborating across technical and non-technical teams to improve system reliability and operational efficiency.

My philosophy is that technology should work seamlessly for everyone while maintaining decentralized security and protecting its users' privacy.
