About Me
I grew up in the (TRS-)80's playing and creating text based adventure games on monochrome displays. My first infosec experience was booting a hacker from a dial-up BBS at around 12 years old. Then I became a professional violinist. But then I decided that I like to eat food, so I got back into computers in 2006. I've been hacking professionally since 2015 and I still know nothing - which is the best way to approach hacking. I really enjoy this work and have done well for myself by not expecting other's to teach me and just creating my own test environments from scratch to try stuff. Now I have a fun job at a pentesting firm where I pentest Big 5 clients and play electric violin when I feel like it.
