About Alex
What I’m about.
Before I knew to call it hacking, I was already taking things apart to see what they were hiding.
I co-founded Tuik Security Group to build the security company I wanted to exist. Building it has taught me as much about earning trust, explaining our work, and leading people as it has about technology.
I’ve built and led security teams, led thousands of security assessments, and helped pioneer industrial protocol fuzzing.
Three Black Badges.One from DEF CON. Two from GrrCON.
After winning DarkNet four times, I was invited to join its team. I went on to run the final challenge for what was then DEF CON’s largest contest. Today, I help lead DEF CON’s photo and video team.

I’ll share what I’ve learned about:

- Deciding what’s worth learning or working on next.
- Finding your path through technical work, leadership, consulting, or building something of your own.
