I am a systems, security and software development professional with a multidisciplinary background spanning technology, law enforcement, research and public policy.

After more than 22 years in policing and two years in child-protection research, I transitioned into technology through the She Codes Plus program. I now work across software development, data platforms, systems administration, cybersecurity, cloud services and business automation.

• Developing and maintaining full-stack applications and connected-data platforms
• Designing PostgreSQL databases, SQL transformations and data-quality processes
• Building integrations and automated workflows across business systems
• Supporting cloud platforms, identity management, endpoint security and organisational cybersecurity
• Developing accessible, maintainable websites and internal tools
• Continuing practical cybersecurity training through a Diploma of Information Technology

I work across business-critical systems, cybersecurity, cloud platforms, software development and technical support. My recent work has included:

• Microsoft 365, Entra ID, Intune and Defender administration
• Google Workspace and Dropbox administration
• Company-wide platform migrations and business continuity planning
• Identity, access and information-security improvements
• Automation and integration support across multiple SaaS platforms
• Astro website development, GitHub workflows and Cloudflare deployment

Through my business, Social Insight Solutions, I provide software development, data-platform, automation and research services.

She Codes Australia engaged Social Insight Solutions through a fixed-term contract to develop a dashboard and data platform. I have continued contributing to the platform as a volunteer following the contracted period.

The platform includes:

• Next.js and TypeScript application development
• Supabase and PostgreSQL database design
• Identity resolution and connected-data modelling
• Role-based dashboards and access controls
• Event, attendance, mentoring and transaction data
• Data-quality auditing, deduplication and repair
• Integrations with external platforms and automated workflows

Languages: Python, React, TypeScript, SQL, JavaScript, HTML and CSS

Development: Next.js, React, Django REST Framework, Flask, Astro and Node.js

Data: PostgreSQL, Supabase, BigQuery, relational data modelling, data transformations and ETL/ELT concepts

Cloud and platforms: Microsoft 365, Azure, Entra ID, Intune, Defender, Google Workspace, Cloudflare, Netlify and GitHub Actions

Ways of working: Git, CI/CD, Agile, Scrum, Kanban, testing, technical documentation and stakeholder engagement

I am completing a Diploma of Information Technology with Equinim College, specialising in Cyber Security and Business Analysis.

All coursework has been completed, and I am currently undertaking the practical component, with completion expected in September–October 2026.

My practical studies include Linux, networking, vulnerability assessment, system hardening and ethical security testing in controlled lab environments.

Before moving into technology, I worked for more than 22 years in law enforcement in Germany and Western Australia, including as a Detective Sergeant and Investigations Manager.

This experience continues to shape how I approach technology:

• integrity and protection of sensitive information
• analytical problem-solving
• evidence-based decision-making
• risk assessment and governance
• clear documentation
• stakeholder communication
• delivery in complex and high-pressure environments

I also worked as a Research Assistant at the Australian Centre for Child Protection, contributing to national practice standards, research projects, data analysis, evidence synthesis and stakeholder consultation.

A significant portion of my recent professional development work is held in private repositories, organisation-owned repositories and a separate work GitHub account.

As a result, the contribution history on this personal account does not represent the full scope or frequency of my current development work.

I am committed to using technology for social impact, strengthening information security and supporting inclusive, accessible and human-centred solutions.

🖤💛❤️ I support reconciliation and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander-led solutions.
