I build applications, websites, AI-powered applications, RAG systems and multi-agent workflows, and I secure them. My background includes building production software and security work; these two focuses taught me how systems are built, where they break, and best practices to secure them. I am a fan of using Test-Driven Development (TDD) and Object-Oriented Programming (OOP). I also think Open-Source Software (OSS) is super cool.

• AI/LLM development: built an end-to-end RAG chatbot (Python, LangChain, MongoDB) for natural-language queries of environmental datasets on a production MERN-stack platform (NSF-funded Sustainability Hub)
• Honors thesis: security of multi-agent LLM systems — built AETHER, an open-source framework for configuring multi-agent LLM systems with a YAML file, and AEGIS for testing how autonomous agents can be attacked when they coordinate, and which topologies hold up best
• Currently preparing for Hack The Box's CPTS exam to deepen the offensive knowledge that sharpens both my testing and my building

[aka a lot of Python]
