👋​ I'm excited to finally say hello to all you amazing folks of the #Fediverse 🌐 with my #Introduction post! Calling the southeastern U.S. home, my life is a vibrant mix of #graphicdesign, #3dprinting, #3Dmodeling, and delving into the fascinating intricacies of technology. I'm in the thick of my graduate studies in #cybersecurity leadership, focusing on integrating cybersecurity with product management processes for more resilient software and services.
I passionately believe that breaking down the cybersecurity silo in organizations means leveraging #userexperience concepts, making cybersecurity practical and understandable for every role.
I'm a sponge for knowledge, and I'm building my tech understanding in #python, #networking, cloud, and machine learning concepts. I'll be the first to admit I have much to learn.
Reading is my haven 📖 - you'll find me lost in the spellbinding worlds of #NealStephenson, #WilliamGibson, the Dune series, and The Expanse 🚀. I also have a soft spot for #InfoSec books like 'The Cuckoo's Egg,' 'Spam Nation,' and 'Sandworm.' I'm always on the lookout for new recommendations! 📚
As an out #nonbinary individual, I'm committed to building inclusion around gender and feminist issues. I aim to help dismantle "male defaults" and foster more equitable work and community environments for a better future for everyone.
The camaraderie and shared learning in the #Fediverse echo the Linux User Groups and Hackerspaces culture I cherish. It's an absolute joy to be a part of a community that upholds these principles.
If you love dissecting the latest in #tech, exploring #opensource software, or immersing yourself in a gripping #scifi or #cybersecurity book, let's connect! Follow me and drop a comment about your favorite tech trend, current read, fediverse tip, or your efforts toward a more inclusive tech community. Can't wait to hear from you!

I'm eager to learn, share, and grow with you all.
