Pittsburgher at heart, Californian up top, curious throughout. Currently at the cyber-security start-up PacketViper providing tech support and building systems to gather, store, process, and display IP based intelligence. I love Linux and Python and have a passion for learning new languages and exploring new paradigms. I`m always looking for more idiomatic, elegant, or concise solutions to whatever problems I might be working on at that moment. I love hearing new ideas and learning about the world in ways including but not limited to exploration through software and technology. History, film, music, and current events keep my mind busy when I`m not putting it to work on code. And when I started school I was studying Geology! How life ends up, we can never tell! ©
