Principal Security Consultant
I am 60 years old, married to my wife Paula for almost 39 years, have three grown children, and three grand children. Professionally I am an ethical hacker and have been doing security work my entire career including the first eight years out of graduate school at the NSA. I grew up in the Atlanta, Georgia area but have lived in Auburn, Alabama during college, Maryland, Germany, and Seattle. Additionally, me and my wife traveled for 5 years in a motorhome across the country from 2017 to 2022. I had a cardiac arrest incident in 2021 while at a bike race in North Georgia, had no heart beat for 38 minutes and was kept alive by a group of other cyclists before the EMTs arrived and got me to the hospital in Gainesville, Georgia where three stints were put into three arteries leading to my heart. I was saved that day by God who used the other cyclists to keep my going until the others took over. I am a follower of Jesus and have been since my early teen years and I attribute that day to Him.
