I build things and secure them - running security programs at national-security scale for systems trusted with 200M+ citizen identities across 80 countries. I write code, build pipelines, and get things certified. Then I explain to others at places like RSAC and BlackHat how it all happened.

My story starts with breaking my parents' brand-new, very expensive computer. Taking it apart turned into a career pulling things apart to understand how they fail. If you've paid with Interac, bought a lottery ticket, or crossed a border, you've probably used one of my products.

I've played in bands, competed in sports at the national level, and partnered with painters to project digital art onto buildings. Welcome to the workshop.
