I am lucky to work as a data scientist at Corelight with the creators and maintainers of Zeek, the open source network security monitoring tool. I'm also honored to be part of the BlackHat NOC, a collaborative effort with the industry's top talent and products. My focus is to use machine learning to solve network security challenges (and there are quite a few!). I am interested in building systems that can put machine learning to use, threat detection and pentesting. Before Corelight, I worked at PatternEx, an early stage AI startup focused on threat detection. In another life, I was a researcher at CSAIL, MIT and received my PhD in computer science from Universidad Complutense in 2013.
