BS Computer Science - SUNY POLY 2012
I write simple software to solve complex problems.
At work, you'll find me writing scripts and programs to integrate aerospace-aware sensors with situational awareness interfaces. At home, you'll find me writing control logic for medical-grade pumps in an attempt to make the perfect mixed drink.

I dabbled in the botnet scene when I was young and foolish. Now I wear a blue team hat.
The need for security is pervasive in the modern digital landscape. I'm here to offer secure solutions that minimize risk but also don't stand in the way of progress or productivity. I've survived a few attacks and always come out the other side basically unharmed... Some nights, it can be hard to sleep while the enemy knocks at the door.
