I was a late bloomer in the tech industry. I spent most of my early adult life as a pharmacy technician, doing very little technology focused work at home or for work. I began working for a small long term care pharmacy where I had the fortunate opportunity to assist in technical projects that piqued my interest in technology. At this job I found I really enjoyed writing code, and began learning to write code which would lead me to becoming a Database developer. This opportunity lead me to desire more. I began a degree program at Liberty University to learn information security, at the time thinking it would look great on a resume to have security experience. I quickly found a passion for security after attending Shmoocon in 2018. Immediately I wanted to learn more, and attended every conference I could, played every CTF I had time to do and building a lab at home to test and learn more. Now I am a Cyber Incident Responder and Threat Hunter in the defense sector, and on the side work with small companies to help with their technological needs.
