By collaborating closely with information security offices, my team and I ensured that best practices were embedded in their operations. My work also focused on identity management and advanced authentication methods, which are vital in today’s digital environment.With a degree in Cybersecurity Engineering from Victoria University of Wellington, I bring a strong technical foundation complemented by hands-on experience at Deloitte and the Bank of New Zealand. My expertise spans secure software development and cloud security governance. I've worked with various New Zealand companies to strengthen their cybersecurity strategies, advocating for a proactive and informed approach to mitigating digital threats.
