At NATO Security Force Assistance Centre of Excellence, I develop a Unity/C# simulation platform for military training and Security Force Assistance scenarios. I’m also developing AI-powered conversational systems that combine speech recognition, large language models, and text-to-speech for interactive training.

As a freelance Unity Developer, I developed VR simulators for employee training and worked on SlapFighter VR, a commercially released Meta Quest title. My contributions included gameplay systems, complete levels, shaders, UI, and audio and music functionality.

My projects include experimental research evaluating CNN-Mamba architectures for AES side-channel analysis, as well as machine-learning work on cyberattack detection and a transformer language model built from scratch. I hold CompTIA Security+ certification and degrees in Mathematical Sciences for Artificial Intelligence and Strategic Studies for Security and International Politics.
