About Me

I am an InfoSec generalist, software developer, and system administrator for CentOS and OpenBSD servers. I have a strong track record of effectively applying established standards and best practices to my work. I take pride in delivering high-quality results and consistently improving both back-end infrastructure and the end-user experience.

I live in the United States where I’m employed as a Security Engineer with Meta.

As a software developer, I am familiar with shell scripting, Python 3, and Golang. I can also work with C, Java, or Perl, and I can learn new languages as needed. Having a strong information security background allows me to identify potential security vulnerabilities and help teams solve the overall security issues they face in a consistent and reusable way.

Having a strong generalist background in both system administation and information security helps to keep systems I manage updated with security patches and configured to be hardened against common security issues. I am also able to more easily work with subject-matter experts to develop plans that both enchance security and the end-user experience.

When I’m not stuck in front of a computer screen, I enjoy reading High Fantasy and Science Fiction novels.
