02 / What I do
I work across the stack, with a particular interest in the places where software, security and public services meet.
From the interface to the API behind it. I build and maintain web applications with JavaScript, PHP and Python, with a focus on performance and clear architecture.
Understanding how systems work, and where they break. My work includes vulnerability discovery, reverse engineering, API security and access-control reviews.
Secure integrations for government and financial clients. Experience with identity verification, single sign-on and the infrastructure behind public-sector services.
