Nation-state cyber operator and HUMINT specialist. Worked directly on some of the nation’s most sensitive operations and covert action.

Executed remote and close-access offensive cyberspace operations — exploitation and attack — while embedded with [redacted] to directly support covert action for [redacted], and developed novel cyberspace tradecraft and offensive tooling — including [redacted] — in support of [redacted] operations and covert-action components. Ran human sources end to end — spot, assess, develop, recruit, handle — and conducted HUMINT collection across contested physical and online domains, fusing cyberspace operations with HUMINT operations and products.

A parallel specialty spans the electromagnetic spectrum: technical surveillance and TSCM, electronic warfare, and the interception, manipulation, and injection of emissions — conducted with deliberate signature discipline.
