I'm loving studying my MSc in Advanced Security and Digital Forensics at Edinburgh Napier University! It's distance learning so tough but so rewarding!

At the moment I'm really loving Crypto (that's cryptography and not so much Monero), Malware Analysis, and Reversing Engineering (or Reversing for the trendy kids)! I'm also fascinated by Quantum Computing, especially Quantum Cryptography (although not sure how much I really understand)!

Other than my current day work which focuses on information extraction, transformation and retrieval, I'm really enjoying playing around with IBM's QISKIT API for their Q quantum computers. It's so much fun! Give it a go, I'm sure you'll love it!

My time is pretty busy at the moment project wise, but I'm happy to say hi, chat and give advice where I can (I might not always have the right answer - or even an answer though)!
