About me
Developer by practice. Educator by conviction. Researcher by nature.
I work at the intersection of frontend engineering, education, and cybersecurity. Since 2012, I've contributed to university, industry, and European initiatives while helping the next generation of developers build stronger technical foundations.
My PhD research explored password security and human behavior—an experience that still shapes how I think about usable, responsible technology.
