As a self-taught cybersecurity professional, I am deeply passionate about human-centered security design because I believe that usability should be a fundamental pillar of security services rather than an afterthought.

My background studying architecture (Bachelor of Arts) and UX design has given me a unique perspective on problem-solving and user-centric design. Since transitioning into technology, I have demonstrated my commitment to professional growth by earning multiple cybersecurity certifications, including the Google Cybersecurity Certification, GRC Mastery courses, and IC2 Certified in Cybersecurity (CC). I am currently preparing for the CompTIA Security+ certification, expected to be completed this year.

My dedication to human-centered security design is exemplified through my current project, Canary. This project was born from my observation that many security solutions are overtly technical and prioritize complexity over usability and as a result, would deter the normal users from understanding proper security measures. By applying user-centric design principles, I'm developing an intuitive solution that bridges the gap between robust security and accessibility, making it easier for everyday users to protect their digital assets without feeling overwhelmed by technical complexity.

I believe that learning driven by passion and genuine interest leads to more innovative and effective solutions. This mindset has fueled my dedication to creating security systems that not only protect but also empower and educate users. My goal is to learn and help maintain a robust security posture while ensuring that security measures remain accessible and intuitive for everyday users.
