# hi, i'm whitney

i'm a security architect, co-founder of Digital Defense Institute, and a founder/advisor of Recon InfoSec.

my geeky interests lie mostly in security, open source, infrastructure, and automation.

my non geeky interests consist of 3d printing, playing outside, festivals, watching friends reruns, crossfit, drawing weird things, resin art, and hanging out with my kiddos.
