I manage identities for a living and build things for fun. Cybersecurity IAM by day — software, side projects, and perpetual learning the rest of the time.

I work in identity and access management — the part of security that decides who you are, what you can touch, and how to prove it. It turns out spending your days thinking about identity makes building a personal site pleasantly recursive.
Outside of work I write software, take things apart to see why they work, and keep a long queue of things I'm learning. I believe in least privilege for systems and maximum privilege for curiosity.
