About

I'm a network and computer engineer focused on hardware, software, & network security, IPv6, mobile technologies, and the outdoors. I currently work Datadog on security infrastructure development. Previously, I've worked for Tealium focusing on automating infrastructure security & monitoring, Qualcomm providing hardware security assessments, and for various commercial & U.S. federal government clients on hardware, software, and IT security projects.

I really enjoy helping people learn secure software development methods, practices, and best standards (linting, CI/CD, configuration as code, etc.). I strive to work together and create a collaborative, professional environment to grow skills & knowledge.

Stephen was able to identify my problem of understanding the situation and focused on that rather than going on to the next step.
