About

CEO & Co-founder at KiviCore with 20+ years in securing embedded and data communication systems. I help teams secure embedded systems on FPGA, ASIC, and microcontrollers — especially when facing real-world constraints like performance, cost, and evolving attack surfaces. My focus: secure communication & computing, hardware-accelerated cryptography, and post-quantum readiness. Proven track record in developing and commercializing security IP cores for FPGA and ASIC.
