As trainer and speaker

I deliver practical, accessible trainings (both online and in person) focused on digital security, digital threats, and open-source intelligence (OSINT).

My work is primarily with organizations that support journalists and human rights defenders at risk, helping them strengthen their digital resilience, better understand the threat landscape, and make informed decisions to protect themselves and their communities.

My training methodology is highly practical and grounded in adversarial thinking. Through scenario-based exercises and real, relatable cases, participants are encouraged to think like potential adversaries in order to better anticipate risks and vulnerabilities. The learning process is designed to build progressively from basic awareness to a deeper understanding of context, actors, and threats, so participants can develop realistic strategies, plan accordingly, and, in critical situations, make the best possible informed decisions.

In addition to trainings, I regularly speak at conferences and participate in panels around the world, raising awareness about emerging digital risks and the real-world impact they have on people working in high-risk environments. My approach is professional yet approachable, grounded in real scenarios, and driven by a strong commitment to amplifying the importance of safety, rights, and solidarity for those most exposed to digital harm
