Experience and leadership

Research Assistant

Apr 2026 — Aug 2026

Nottingham Trent University

Researched how AWS Lambda telemetry can support evidence preservation and incident reconstruction.

  • Built ForensicReadyLambda, a Python toolkit to audit logging readiness, collect CloudTrail and CloudWatch records, and reconstruct incident timelines through customer-accessible AWS APIs.
  • Implemented SHA-256 integrity checks, CloudTrail digest checks and evidence preservation with S3 Object Lock.
  • Tested four controlled attack scenarios. Configured logging captured every expected evidence item, while each comparison configuration missed one.

Cloud Engineering Intern

Nov 2024 — Jun 2025

BitMarkets Technologies

Worked on cloud integrations and transaction workflows for a cryptocurrency platform.

  • Built transactional email infrastructure with Amazon SES, delivering scoped tickets and submitting changes through pull request review.
  • Integrated external cryptocurrency APIs to automate steps in the transaction workflow.
  • Worked with engineering and product colleagues on daily stand-ups, ticket scoping and sprint delivery, and contributed to internal technical documentation.
