What I Work On

Program analysis tools for hard-to-detect threats

Uncovering evasive threats and hard-to-find business logic vulnerabilities

Low-level firmware security

Finding bugs below the OS in firmware, bootloaders, system management mode, and hardware-adjacent stacks.

Scalable vulnerability discovery

Building automated systems that make deep security testing practical across large, real-world codebases.
