Today is my birthday, and I think it's time for a real #introduction
Hi, I'm Alissa, also dnsprincess. I'm a hacker.
I'm also a dog parent, researcher, and professional. I am just a person looking to be better every day.
I'm a friend.
I probably want to be your friend too.
My hobbies include #3Dprinting #tarot #biohacking #adventuring #geocaching #MagicTheGathering #RuneScape #wardriving #studying and other cool things. I like getting crafty, and am always willing to try something new.
I mentor through a cyber security bootcamp. Students are paired with mentors like me to help them pass the Security+ and get through their coursework and projects. Currently I have 5 mentees! Each one of them are unique, and I'm also incredibly proud of the mentees that have graduated!
I work at @BishopFox and am incredibly proud of my coworkers and friends. I tell everyone I'm happy like day 1, and I've been there a lil over a year. I'm a solutions architect with the privilege of being able to continue researching and get support doing it. It's why I'm able to speak at @cactuscon this Saturday! I love submitting CFPs and speaking at conferences, and Bishop Fox supports my professional development and hacking. Woo! The bulk of my job is to help with pre-sales, technical assistance, and scoping pentests. Someone has to determine the approach and time.
I'm the COO of @CircleCityCon and put my blood sweat and tears into the conference. If you have the chance to come see us, please come! It's in Indianapolis, the circle city, and we like to have fun! It's a great con if you need a place for your first talk. It's a smaller con, no lie, but we do a lot of really cool things; CTFs, themed games, villages, talks, and FREE trainings! If you need help finding us or want a ticket giveaway always reach out. We want you there.
There's a lot more to me than this, and I'm only sharing a small part of me, but I hope this helps you get to know me :)
