My coding career began as a teenager on the Atari ST demoscene where I accumulated experience in Motorola 68000 assembly and disassembly; coding demos and games; manually cracking video game copy protections using machine code monitors; developing binary-level video game exploits; developing boot sector viruses (contained) and anti-virus software on the assembly code level; and developing blue box software for phreaking purposes.

Since 1996, I've enjoyed innovating at, and contributing to, a variety of tech start-ups and Fortune 100 companies, delivering projects as a coder, dev lead, tech manager, engineering director, technical product owner, Agile facilitator (Scrum and Kanban) and business owner.

I'm a card-carrying member and supporter of the IEEE. I consider their professional Code of Ethics non-negotiable and act accordingly. I'm also a member and supporter of the Electronic Frontier Foundation and Linux Foundation. Supporter of the Wikimedia Foundation and The Innocence Project. Signatory to The Manifesto for Software Craftsmanship.

I'm a producer and composer, too, having sculpted music for video games and other projects for as long as I've crafted code. I've performed live on the mainstage at DEF CON, the world's largest information security conference, and appeared on the DEF CON 27 official soundtrack. I'm a producer for nerdcore legend YTCracker. I studied music theory and performance at Musicians Institute. Proceeds from my music streams and sales go to the EFF. Software isn't just something I do for a paycheck - it permeates every aspect of my life.
