As a former developer, I’m primarily focused on offensive Application Security nowadays. Currently building some things in C++ and Qt as I enjoy desktop development as a break from the state of the modern web.

Anti-DEI is white supremacy. Black lives matter. LGBT+ rights are human rights. Healthcare, security, a decent income, and housing with dignity are human rights. Abortion is healthcare. Science is our best hope as a species. Kindness and empathy are the noblest of human traits.
