Beyond work

Interests

Outside the screen: jogging, martial arts, badminton, travelling, and the occasional kayaking session around Bali.

Indoors I'm a gamer and streamer, follow a fair share of sci-fi and fantasy movies and anime, and consider myself an aspiring home chef. I also keep an eye on the cyber-security scene and the latest automation-testing tools as they ship.

I'm a long-time CTF player — cryptography, web exploitation, and forensics — and I enjoy designing challenges as much as solving them.
