Building software (currently all things Kotlin) & breaking software (all things infosec) while absorbing a responsible amount of caffeine, craft beer and techno.

Relentless curiosity. Play, dig, learn, build, repeat.
Happy Die Hard day to those who celebrate 🙏

some personal news: I have decided to recklessly neglect build performance and throw an M4 at it instead. I will not be taking questions at this time.

(but seriously, very excited to finally upgrade my personal laptop)
