Hello! I’m Deborah. I’m a seasoned project and operations manager, IT coordinator and security awareness trainer. Next to managing operations, IT or projects, I also have experience with writing and implementing information security policies and (technical) documentation.
I work for Arena for Journalism in Europe’s Collaborative Desk as IT coordinator and security awareness trainer.
Self-taught, I’ve worked in the arts, digital rights, information security, cyber security and (open-source) technology sphere for 20+ years. As an activist, I’m vocal about defending human rights, inequality, digital security and privacy, especially important in this age of surveillance capitalism.
I participated in the Bellingcat workshop in 2019 where I learned a broad set of OSINT research techniques and tools.
Geeky stuff aside, I’m also a ceramist with a focus on hand-building. The Japanese firing technique Raku is one my favorite methods of firing. I’m currently focused on a series of ‘Face Vases’. You can take a peek at my work here ツ
Music is very important, too. I have a big library full of weird and eclectic stuff; from avant-garde, experimental and electronic stuff, to hip-hop, (noisy)-punk, new-wave, traditional world music, doom metal, jazz, (contemporary) classical music and (Japanese) noise ~
