Breaking barriers: An introvert's story to InfoSec

Presented at Kernelcon 2020 Virtual, March 28, 2020, 2:45 p.m. (60 minutes)

Barriers can slow us down from reaching our goals but they don’t have to block us. The key is not letting the gates stop you in your tracks and instead finding a way around or through them. This is hard enough without throwing in the introversion and imposter syndrome common to our industry. Join me while I walk through my journey overcoming the challenges of being an introvert trying to learn while overcoming the imposter syndrome that says I can't. You'll walk away with strategies to create opportunities that will showcase your strengths and ways to overcome the internal monologue that forever tells us we can't.
