About

Figuring Out Privacy, One Data Leak at a Time I never thought I’d end up in the world of privacy, but here I am deep in the trenches of pixels, SDKs, and consent banners that sometimes don’t do what they promise. I’ve always been curious about how things work behind the scenes, and now that curiosity helps me untangle the complex web of data flows in websites and mobile apps. At Privado.ai, I work with privacy teams to uncover hidden data leaks, understand compliance risks, and make sure companies aren’t unintentionally sharing more than they should. My focus is on the US market, where regulations like CPRA, CIPA, and global frameworks (ICO, CNIL) are constantly evolving, keeping privacy teams on their toes. Outside of work, I love dissecting privacy news, breaking down legal jargon into something digestible, and occasionally questioning why some websites still track me after I said "no." Always happy to chat about privacy, tech, or anything that makes data protection a little less painful!
