About me

Biography

I'm Alan, a security engineer based in the San Francisco Bay Area helping fast-moving teams scale their security program across security operations, architecture design, and strategic governance.

I believe in the power of technology to expand human potential and make the world safer. When I'm not glued to my screen, you can find me hunting for the city's best coffee, playing pickleball at my favorite park, or backpacking along the West Coast. Take a look around my portfolio, and if you like what you see, let's chat.
