I'm a Product Security Engineer and a Security Leader with a deep interest in Open Source Security. I work at Mattermost as a Product Security Engineering Lead. Previously I was a Principal Product Security Engineer at Auth0/Okta. Passionate about creating secure applications, I'm dedicated to building a robust product security program and educating developers on security threats and best practices. I've previously shared her work and insights at BlackHat EU, Real World Crypto, and OWASP AppSec IL, among others.
