A collection of projects, experiences, and learnings that reflect my professional and personal growth.
I work as a Security Analyst at a Swiss company, where I apply critical thinking and technology to tackle security challenges. The dynamic landscape keeps the work engaging, requiring problem-solving and adaptability. Beyond cybersecurity, I have a passion for music and design, where creativity and structure come together in a similar way. What drives me most is the intellectual challenge and the constant need to stay ahead.
