Who I am
Independent Security Advisor | Network & IT Security | Compliance & Privacy
I'm an independent security advisor with three years of deep focus on network and IT security, specialising alongside my studies in compliance, regulatory frameworks, and privacy.
I didn't wait to feel ready. I built my consulting practice while studying, because I kept seeing the same problem: Startups and SaaS companies trying to do the right thing on security, being pointed toward tools and dashboards built for companies ten times their size.
I also noticed something most advisors overlook you don't need access to a company's systems to understand where they're exposed.
My background is technical. My approach is human. I translate real security risks into language founders can actually act on connecting technical gaps to business impact, compliance obligations, and operational exposure. I'm driven by one thing: preventing data breaches before they happen. Not after. Not during. Before.
The threat landscape evolves constantly. So do I. Not because someone handed me a career path, but because I genuinely care about how security works in the real world. That's what drives me to deliver the best possible service to every client.
How I think about security
Security and compliance shouldn’t be:
Overcomplicated
Expensive
Built only for large companies
They should be:
Practical
Understandable
Affordable
Built for how modern companies actually operate
A bridge between key areas
This work connects three critical areas:
IT & Security
Where your systems and integrations are exposed
Compliance & GDPR
Where you don’t meet requirements, where you should meet it
Business Impact
What it actually means for your company
