Building intelligent systems that defend, adapt, and respond to cyber threats autonomously.
I believe the future of cybersecurity lies in machine learning–driven defense, where systems not only detect attacks but learn and evolve with every threat.
My focus is on developing AI-assisted security tools — from incident response automation to graph-based intrusion detection using neural networks.
- 🧠 Machine Learning for Security – Applying deep learning and GNNs to model attacker behavior and network topology.
- ⚙️ Security Automation & SOAR – Building tools that automate detection, triage, and response workflows.
- ☁️ Cloud & Infrastructure Security – Securing hybrid environments with SIEM, EDR, and continuous monitoring.
- 🧩 DevSecOps – Embedding security into CI/CD pipelines using Docker, GitHub Actions, and Jenkins.

Built a large-scale collaborative + content-based recommendation system for over a million records, integrated with the library’s Sierra ILS through REST APIs and RabbitMQ.
Implemented full CI/CD automation with Docker and GitHub Actions.
Implemented a real-time ELK-based SIEM solution, aligned infrastructure with PCI-DSS, and deployed Bitdefender EDR to harden endpoints across the organization.
Developed AI-based classification models for credit fraud and malware detection using TensorFlow and PyTorch to improve response accuracy and reduce false positives.
Exploring how Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) can map relationships between attack vectors, user behavior, and network events — enabling systems to anticipate and isolate threats before they spread.
