My journey into cybersecurity started with an interest in human behaviour - an interest I followed by double majoring in Criminology and Sociology at the University of Toronto where I learnt about social theories and the psychological components behind our actions. So when I first read about the social engineering attack on Twitter that promoted cryptocurrency scams, I found that much of what I was studying had parallels to how this attack was possible. The attackers exploited basic human tendencies, like confirmation bias and the natural trust employees have in their colleagues by targeting lower-level employees, who lacked proper training, and then worked their way up to more privileged accounts. For me, cybersecurity became the perfect blend of my love for technology and my passion for understanding human behavior. Today, I specialize in digital forensics, network security, and user authentication. I use my investigative mindset to design strong, resilient security systems. I’m passionate about helping organizations stay ahead of threats and making the digital world a safer place for everyone.
