Husband, father, hacker, gamer. Young’s path into security started like a good game exploit—he wanted to win, bent the rules, and discovered a passion for hacking. He began as a web app security consultant, moved into penetration testing and red teaming, and now works in application security engineering, helping teams build secure systems (and still breaking things for fun). He also dives into all kinds of games and stories, especially fantasy with Eastern martial arts, and loves dissecting media with the same curiosity he brings to code.
