whoami

Days: automation infrastructure at CrowdStrike — cloud monitoring strategy, AI tooling, agentic workflows, and the org's automation ecosystem. Founded the team, recruited it, ships Go & Python microservices to production.

Nights: where the over-engineering happens. The world's first ad network for AI agents. An env-var SaaS run by a team of exactly one. Bug bounties across web2 and web3. CTFs when the night is long enough.

Before: security attack simulations at Palo Alto Networks, first automation-infra hire at Cato Networks, covert-network infrastructure in IDF Unit 81.

off-keyboard: piano since age 10 · boxing · snowboarding · Counter-Strike.
