Thinking a lot recently about the outrage over Lizzo playing James Madison's flute

I made a thing called Wellness Ping because someone I care about went silent and it took too long for anyone to notice. You get regular check-ins via email. If you don't respond, your emergency contacts get notified. Built it for anyone who might go missing and needs someone to notice […]

I've been silently following & observing for a couple weeks, so it appears I'm overdue for an #introduction post. Professionally, I've been #blueteam #infosec for about 16 years. I've evolved into more of a policy & guidance role over the years, but I'm also still the #incidentresponse lead […]
