I lead bug bounties and security competitions at Cantina, and build AI workflows, automations, and agents for teams.
What I'm looking for
At Cantina, I lead bug bounties and security competitions, coordinating across researchers and clients. I also work on AI workflows, automations, and agents that fit how teams already operate.
Before Cantina, I led judging at Sherlock Protocol and worked in Web3 security. I went from knowing almost nothing about blockchain to working in the industry within a few weeks, reinforcing my belief that complex problems become manageable once you understand the underlying system.
Earlier, I taught physics and worked on deep learning and computer vision. I write about agentic systems, automation, and internal operations, with security as the backdrop.
