About   (request update)
I was born and raised in Hawaii. In 2009 I decided to leave my friends and family to obtain an education on the east coast at GW. I received my masters in forensic science focus in High tech crime investigations in 2011. After graduating I aspired to have a job where i analyzed malware from the network level down to the file itself. That is exactly what i was doing in my first contract at Booz Allen. IT WAS GREAT! I still have those aspirations, but now i am longing to be closer to home.
Current Whereabouts:
Tennis, Art (Drawing, sculpting, painting, etc), jewelry making, gardening, gaming, boardwalks, hiking
Life & Professional Aspirations:
I would like to have an expertise in network forensics to better my host based forensic skills. I would also like to examine the realm of Reverse engineering. Pulling the file apart and examining what it does is really interesting to me.
