About me

About Kevin
My work sits where software architecture, mobile application security, fintech cybersecurity, DevSecOps and quality assurance meet. I help organisations design, build, test, secure and scale software that people trust with their money and data.
I also run Roots Data, where I lead product development across data, analytics and software platforms — partnering with banks, technology startups, government organisations and engineering teams.
Beyond client work, I build AI-assisted products and civic-tech platforms, and I stay deep in the security research that keeps the practice sharp: threat modelling, AI security and incident response.

Why me?
How I work
Threat models before features, secure SDLC in the pipeline and CISSP-grade risk thinking from the first commit — not a pre-launch audit.
Mobile banking and payments don't get a second chance. I design for fraud, scale and failure so your users never notice them.
Every release ships behind risk-based test plans and automation pipelines. Quality isn't a feeling here — it's a report your team can read.
Clear guidance without jargon and no unnecessary complexity — just practical decisions that move the work forward.
