About

Security, efficiency, elegance.

Born in South Africa, raised in Dubai, educated in California. I'm a software engineer with a B.S. in Computer Science & Mathematics from Santa Clara University and an M.S. in Cybersecurity & Data Analytics in progress at Champlain College (graduating June 2026). I ship fast, secure, full-stack products with React and Next.js.
