About Me

Table of Contents

I am the VP of Research & Development at Voreas Laboratories where I’m leading research and engineering efforts to store and analyze petabytes of security data. Before this role, I worked at Devo as the Senior Director of Security Research managing the SciSec Security Team. My team led numerous efforts to analyze internal security datasets and build out new security capabilities for the Devo platform. Before directing the SciSec team, I worked as a Senior Research Scientist for Censys where I helped build out new network attribution capabilities for the company’s Attack Surface Management product.

Before making the jump to industry, I received my Ph.D. from Georgia Institute of Technology under the advisement of Manos Antonakakis, and prior to pursuing my Ph.D., I received degrees from both Wake Forest University (M.S., Computer Science, ’11) and Duke University (B.S., Computer Science, ’06).
