Raised in the woods of Alaska, Juneau attributes her love of hacking to a childhood spent building and breaking things. After studying computer science and economics she moved to Dallas, Texas and took a job as a network security engineer. In Dallas; Juneau found a home in the local community and started speaking at cons. When she isn't programming or asking strangers about the prisoner's dilemma, Juneau breathes fire and runs DC214; Dallas's DefCon group.
