Just a hacker in the SF bay area who likes technology of all sorts; cyber security expert, founder, angel, advisor/mentor, and singer/musician. :)

I run the Agentic Red Team at Google DeepMind.

I have always been more interested in why and how things worked, rather than just being content that they did.

20+ years in offensive software security, eight patents (I hate them but tell that to the VCs who love them)

Sold Tinfoil Security, after 9 years of building it, to Synopsys, in January 2020. Hell of a ride.

My (last) startup: https://www.tinfoilsecurity.com acquired by https://www.synopsys.com
