I became interested in InfoSec when I attended DefCon in 2004. I got a degree in Information and Computer Science from UC Irvine in 2009. After paying my bills by doing QA testing and DevOps, I got my first job in information security performing FIPS and Common Criteria evaluations with InfoGard Laboratories (now UL). I later obtained my OSCP certification and most recently became an Application Security Engineer with Aspect Security in 2015. I now work on web application security assessments and creating e-learning material for secure development processes.
