Thirty years an engineer, the last eleven public-facing. I've spoken at DEF CON, the AI Engineer World's Fair, KCDC and JCON, co-authored Mastering Enterprise JavaBeans 3.0, and written for 2600 Magazine — including the investigation that became my talk "How I Became a Repo Man for a Day."
Ask me about game-based developer education, prompt injection, or the time I hacked back someone trying to remote-control my machine.
