Christie Dudley started with a BSEE, emphasis in digital communications. She then took off into networking and network engineering, mostly in finance and manufacturing. Later, she jumped ship and studied anthropology for a while. Since opportunities are limited there, she drifted back to tech, delving more into information and device security. With the goal of wrapping all these diverse interests up into a single career, she earned a Juris Doctor from Santa Clara University Law. She now consults on privacy and legal issues.
