Computer Technical Assistant | Cybersecurity Senior | Founder, CTRL+J Juice Lounge & IT Hub™ LLC
Based in: Mohawk Valley, New York
I support K–12 technology as a Computer Technical Assistant at Fonda-Fultonville Central School District while completing my B.S. in Cybersecurity at the University at Albany. My academic work combines a self-designed concentration in AI-Driven Cybersecurity & Ethical Hacking with a minor in AI Ethics & Philosophy.
I build privacy-conscious, human-centered defensive systems connecting Zero Trust, identity security, threat detection, accessibility, and accountable AI.
I build security systems that think before they trust—and explain before they alarm.

A published, privacy-first browser security extension that analyzes locally available webpage and link signals and turns them into calm, plain-language risk guidance.
- Helps users recognize phishing indicators, suspicious links, misleading domains, risky prompts, and manipulative urgency.
- Prioritizes local-first analysis, accessibility, understandable explanations, and user choice.
- Demonstrates browser security, human-centered threat communication, privacy-by-design, and defensive product development.

A defensive Zero Trust simulation that evaluates access requests using identity, role, device trust, unusual behavior, MFA, and anomaly signals.
- Produces allow, deny, or deception-routing decisions.
- Models least privilege, RBAC, private-vault boundaries, structured audit logging, and SOC-style visibility.
- Uses decoy containment for suspicious sessions without offensive retaliation or hack-back behavior.
- Built with Next.js, React, Tailwind CSS, and SQLite.

A living research repository connecting moral philosophy with practical AI governance and security design.
- Develops my proposed framework of bounded moral learning.
- Examines human responsibility, concentrated power, dignity, consent, privacy, accessibility, accountability, appeal, and repair.
- Applies Unified Love to responsible AI while clearly separating personal philosophical proposals from established standards.
- Connects ethical principles to Guardian systems, Zero Trust, defensive deception, and governance frameworks.

I founded CTRL+J Juice Lounge & IT Hub™ LLC to create an inclusive community technology space in New York's Mohawk Valley.
The planned venture brings together:
- a juice lounge and welcoming social space
- IT support, digital-literacy opportunities, and technology assistance
- accessible study and remote-work areas
- gaming stations, competitions, and community events
- a Safe Haven for everyone—young people, older adults, students, remote workers, and community members of every background
CTRL+J is intended to welcome people regardless of race, religion, creed, disability, age, sexual orientation, or gender identity. Its guiding idea is simple: technology, community, accessibility, and human connection should strengthen one another.
Target opening: July–August 2027
- Zero Trust architecture and identity-aware access design
- IAM, RBAC, authentication, authorization, and least privilege
- Risk-based policy decisions and defense-in-depth
- Security logging, auditability, and event visibility
- Privacy-conscious and threat-aware system design
- Log review, anomaly recognition, and security-event interpretation
- Incident-response and triage foundations
- Threat modeling and attack-surface awareness
- Phishing indicators and user-risk communication
- Vulnerability awareness and risk prioritization
- Windows and Linux environments
- Endpoint and user troubleshooting
- TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP, VPN, and networking fundamentals
- System-hardening and access-control concepts
- Clear technical documentation and user support
- JavaScript, React, Next.js, and Tailwind CSS
- SQLite and SQL fundamentals
- Python and PowerShell fundamentals
- Git and GitHub
- Accessible, explanation-first interface design
- Google Cybersecurity Professional Certificate
- TryHackMe completed learning paths: Cyber Security 101 and Pre Security
- ISC² Certified in Cybersecurity training: completed; certification exam pending
- Continuing hands-on practice through TryHackMe labs, local vulnerability audits, defensive simulations, and open-source project development
I am continuing to build toward work in:
- Security Operations and threat detection
- Identity and Access Management
- Security engineering and defensive architecture
- Human-centered security product development
- Responsible and accountable AI systems
My long-term goal is to bridge technical security, ethical governance, accessibility, and real-world human needs.
- Security should be technically strong, ethically grounded, and understandable to the people it protects.
- AI must not become a place where human decision-makers hide responsibility.
- Privacy, dignity, accessibility, accountability, and meaningful user choice should be built into systems from the beginning.
- Defensive security should protect and contain—not retaliate.
