Hayden McKenzie publishes this as one of the aliases recovered from a DPRK IT worker cell's own files, on a per-alias record that gives its location as Harlingen, Texas and the role it presents as Senior Software Engineer, and the contact details above. The record adds two mailboxes from the persona's working files. The record was not on the site when this one first read it on 22 September 2026 and appeared alongside the report The Women Behind North Korea's IT Worker Operations, published on 23 September, so that is the date cited. The name is the identity the operation presents, not the operator's; a real person whose name or details it may have been assembled from is not the worker.

Line type

Line type	Wireless
Carrier	SINCH
Rate centre	BURBANK, CA

Sinch is a communications-platform provider selling programmable numbers to software, not a consumer mobile operator, so the wireless label describes the numbering range rather than a handset somebody walked into a shop to buy.

Looked up 2026-09-30 at phonevalidator.com. This is a lookup of the line itself.
