Chief Executive Officer / Senior Software Engineer

Starting in early childhood as a security researcher in mobile development, I quickly became passionate about the intersection of software development, cybersecurity, and verification. I have worked with thought leaders on device unlocks and gradually learned what a well-written and secure project looks like. During my time at university, I decided to create a static analysis project that would combine all my knowledge and skills, and that’s what I do these days.
