Infosec practitioner, Founder of EliteSec (https://elitesec.io), podcaster, father, and knowledge junkie. Defender of the Oxford comma, and lover of good BBQ. Posts are my own, but YMMV.

I toot about #cybersecurity topics and #entrepreneurship, plus random thoughts in between.

IT security student. Programmer of digital duck tape, learning to write digital plumbing. Aspiring cryptographer. Personal research interests include zero-knowledge credentials (to counter online antisocial conduct while protecting privacy) and AV/image non-repudiation (to counter deepfakes).


Anti-exceptionalist egalitarian. Empirical pragmatist: evidence over ideology, results over rationalization. Theory is as good as the least of its falsifiability, its internal consistency, and its withstanding of attempted disproof. It is as useful as one is willing to revise or replace it when it falls.

Always questioning. Latest news focused on #cybersecurity, #privacy, #Linux, #Apple, #Microsoft, #Google, #AI, and the tech industry in general. Toxicity is not tolerated. Porn is blocked. I follow like interests.
