About Me

I'm a physics graduate and software engineer passionate about building automation tools, embedded systems, and retro tech projects. I work as a Cyber Security Engineer at PointWire, where I leverage Tanium, Deep Instinct and Python to help customers with endpoint management. A huge amount of my spare time is spent tinkering with electronics, 3D printing, Retro Gaming, or worst of all, smartifying my house. Im a big fan of Home Assistant and since purchasing my own home, making everything smart has become my biggest project.
