I am a Security Consultant at Xebia Security with experience as an offensive security specialist and information security officer. I like to combine technical skills on offensive security with a risk-based approach to maximise business value of security solutions. On the defensive side, I can assist in automating security checks in the CI-pipeline to get direct feedback to developers or review code to identify vulnerable functionality. Next to this, I am a Google Cloud Certified Professional Cloud Security Engineer.
Having my roots in Aerospace Engineering, I have a broad interest in advanced technology and I am quick to grasp new concepts. I like tinkering with systems and solving complex puzzles with a goal-oriented approach.
