Hi, I'm Herson πŸ‘‹

I'm an open source developer based in Denver building tools at the intersection of cybersecurity and AI. I write mostly Python, and I care about making security tooling more accessible and intelligent for everyone.

What I'm Building

  • πŸ” Security tools β€” threat detection, vulnerability scanning, and encrypted data pipelines that individuals and small teams can actually use
  • πŸ€– AI-assisted security β€” applying ML and NLP to automate the tedious parts of staying secure
  • πŸ“š Tutorials and guides β€” lowering the barrier for developers getting started in cybersecurity and ML

Check out my repositories to see what's actively in progress.

Why Sponsor?

Maintaining open source takes real time. Your sponsorship lets me:

  • Dedicate focused hours to active projects instead of squeezing them around a day job
  • Respond to issues and PRs faster
  • Write documentation and tutorials that help the broader community
  • Keep tools free and open rather than paywalled

Even $5/month makes a difference and tells me this work is worth continuing.

A Bit More About Me

I've been contributing to open source projects in cybersecurity and AI for several years. My background spans threat detection, data protection, NLP, and data warehousing β€” but what drives me isn't the stack, it's the problem: security should be open, collaborative, and understandable, not locked behind expensive enterprise tools.

If you want to chat about a project, collaboration, or just have questions β€” open an issue or find me on GitHub.

Thanks for stopping by. πŸ™
