Building defenses that stand strong against evolving threats

I'm a SOC Analyst II and Indiana University Bloomington graduate with a degree in computer science. I have a passion for understanding how attacks happen, uncovering the evidence they leave behind, and building better ways to detect them. My interests include security operations, automation, and the growing role of artificial intelligence in cybersecurity.

The guiding idea is simple: information security is always evolving. I question more, learn constantly, and share knowledge openly so defenders everywhere can build stronger.

Bako Security is where I document those projects, break down technical concepts, share lessons from hands-on investigations, and continue developing toward my goal of becoming a well-rounded defensive security practitioner.
