Brief Bio

I obtained my BCom Honours in Information Systems from the University of Pretoria in 2004 with a focus on the psychology of perception and how it influences our understanding of our client’s needs when developing Information Systems.

Since then I have developed a special interest in the security aspects of various online platforms, specifically focusing on the psychological impact of cyber security breaches and predatory behavior on the safety of children, teenagers and young adults.

Further to this, I also have a keen interest in cyber warfare and how malware can be used as a force-multiplier in kinetic war efforts.
