I'm a senior technologist, educator, conference speaker, athlete, and event organizer currently living near Denver, Colorado; and working on distributed key management for blockchain networks.

Teaching is a passion, both as a speaker or one-on-one. Subjects of interest include reverse engineering, network security, radio transmitter hunting, public safety communications, and graphics rendering. I can trace my interest in engineering and education to the Amateur Radio study group I formed with several friends in middle school, which resulted in most of us earning our licenses, myself included.

Today, I continue that tradition of sharing knowledge by authoring technical blog entries, working to build communities through events, and mentoring the next generation of responsible engineers at local makerspaces. 🤝

When offline, I enjoy a number of outdoor sports, including riding my Catrike Dumont recumbent cycle, running, and hiking the beautiful Rocky Mountains with my family.

My primary development environment is Visual Studio Code (with the Vim extension), usually running on my M1 Max MacBook Pro. When at the desk, I use a Voyager keyboard from ZSA with Kailh Choc Brown switches. ⌨️
