Experienced Penetration Tester, Certified in Covert Access, Physical Auditing, and Elicitation, with proven expertise in physical penetration testing and security audits. Passionate about blending my technical penetration testing skills, hands-on physical security experience, and evolving Red Teaming capabilities to strengthen proactive threat emulation and defense strategies.

A seasoned cybersecurity professional with expertise in penetration testing across Web, API, Network, and Mobile platforms. Backed by seven years as a versatile Test Engineer & QA and eight years in Project Management, I bring a unique blend of analytical precision, adaptability, and leadership to every engagement.

Known for my investigative mindset, keen attention to detail, and strong communication skills, I approach challenges with confidence and precision. Recognized by colleagues as "the glue that holds the team together," I foster collaboration, support, and kindness in every endeavor.

Beyond my technical expertise, a committed advocate for ethical hacking and cybersecurity education, as I host the Twitch podcast "Ethical Hacking, Guests, and Wholesomeness" and am an international keynote speaker on Offensive Security. My written work has been featured in HVCK and Top Cyber News Magazine, and I have contributed as a technical reviewer for upcoming cybersecurity books, including:

🖋Preface contributor: Introduction to Red Operations 2.0 – A Basic Guide for Your Red Team Operations by Joas A. Santos.
