I’m Jay, a seasoned IT security professional with over 11 years of experience in penetration testing and vulnerability management. I have worked with multinational corporations overseas and currently serve in a leading NZ organization, securing web, API, network, cloud, 5G infrastructure, and IoT environments. I hold multiple IT certifications, including OSCP, AWS Security, and CyberArk.

I have identified critical vulnerabilities through bug bounty programs and contributed to the cybersecurity community by presenting at conferences such as CHCon-2024, NZITF-2024, and OWASP Auckland 24/25. Passionate about cybersecurity education, I love helping individuals and small businesses stay safe online, making security simple, accessible, and practical for everyone.

Outside of work, I enjoy swimming, writing children's books, archery, and watching sci-fi movies and series.
