Senior offensive security specialist with 10+ years across penetration testing, adversary simulation, deception engineering, and technical sales engineering. Based in Paarl, South Africa.
I'm a senior cybersecurity professional with deep roots in offensive security — from hands-on penetration testing and red teaming to building detection strategies using deception engineering.
My career spans technical roles across penetration testing, security architecture, network engineering, and deception strategy, with experience in both hands-on delivery and customer-facing technical advisory.
I've spoken at Black Hat USA and BSides Cape Town, and built training content for Offensive Security's globally recognised platform.
Technical Sales Engineer — deception strategy, Canary deployments, and enterprise security advisory.
Content Engineer — built globally used training labs and realistic adversary attack scenarios.
Lead Security Analyst — penetration testing, incident response, and security research across web, mobile, and infrastructure.
Senior Network & Security Engineer — enterprise architecture, firewall design, and security operations across MEA.
Real-world attack simulation across web applications, internal infrastructure, and cloud environments to identify and prove exploitable risk.
Design and deploy deception systems that surface attacker activity early, improving visibility across your environment without adding noise.
Assess and advise on network segmentation, firewall posture, and security control design from an attacker's perspective.
Whether you're looking for a technical security advisor, a speaker for your next event, or someone to help your organisation think like an attacker — I'd love to hear from you.
Based in Paarl, South Africa. Open to opportunities and collaboration.
