FoodWill Donation Service
End-to-end UX for a food donation app: personas, usability studies, low-to-high fidelity prototypes, and security-conscious location handling. 40% faster task completion after iterations.
I bridge UX design and cybersecurity — building systems that are intuitive for users and resilient against threats. Based in Tampa, Florida.
About Me
I’m a cybersecurity analyst and UX/UI designer with a rare dual perspective: I understand how attackers think, and I understand how users behave. This combination lets me build systems that are not just secure by policy, but secure by design.
My background spans SOC operations, network defense, and incident investigation alongside years of user research, wireframing, and product design. I’ve built a Raspberry Pi network security lab using Pi-hole DNS filtering, designed Google-certified UX projects, and deployed cloud infrastructure with security guardrails baked in from day one.
I hold an MBA in Marketing from JNTU Hyderabad and a BA in Carpet Design from the University of Sistan and Baluchestan. I’m completing my CompTIA Security+ certification at Syracuse University. I believe "human error" is a design failure — and I fix it at the source.
Case Studies & Labs
End-to-end UX for a food donation app: personas, usability studies, low-to-high fidelity prototypes, and security-conscious location handling. 40% faster task completion after iterations.
Frictionless pre-order app with guest checkout, ingredient customization, group ordering with split payment, and a passive behavioral authentication framework protecting loyalty data.
Global art gallery search engine with zipcode-based discovery, default dark exhibition mode, accessibility features, and canvas scraper defenses protecting artist intellectual property.
Balanced security and retail conversion rates by integrating transparent checkout structures, real-time password indicators, and continuous behavioral telemetry.
Thought Leadership
How visual transparency prevents security analysts from bypassing automated alert models — and why Explainable AI is a UX mandate, not just an engineering goal.
Why my UX background is my primary engine for building structural digital resilience — and how I came to understand that “human error” is always a design failure.
Why data displays are the first line of defense against advanced persistent threats, and how designing for high-stress comprehension directly reduces threat dwell time.
