About Me

Newer update of sorts... I think.

My name's William. I smoke, I drink, I do drugs and I swear too much. I'm an old cyberpunk who has a passion for writing.

I'm in the information security industry. I'm a big cryptophreak and I've had my walk on the dark side. Now I work to help protect businesses from the kind of kid I was. The net was more romantic back in the day if you ask me, anyway.

Call it giving back to the community or something.

I'm working for Sun Microsystems here in Denver and I'm back in school studying infosec fulltime as well. My time is so full I can't fit any more time in, so if you have any extra you could spare me, I would appreciate it. I'm also working slowly towards an English MA.

I'm a nerd, a geek, a recluse, and a drifter. But I think I dress nice. I'm probably a terrible match for you.

Either way, sweets, I'm the man your mother warned you about.
