Hi there πŸ‘‹πŸ»

I'm Natalie, a DevSecOps engineer and consultant experienced in developer experience and consolidation within a wide array of security-focused environments. I work at the intersection of technology, people, and highly-regulated industries as a Principal Solutions Engineer for Public Sector at Chainguard!

πŸ“ I write about tech, what I'm working on, and what I'm playing with on my blog. Here's what I've been up to lately:

  1. A second year of writing on the internet: The second year was easier than the first despite having so much more going on.
  2. Interviewing upwards: Some thoughts on interviewing folks when it's your manager's position open.
  3. How long do cows live?: How long do cows live? The best communication lesson I've learned, told as an ancient Greek tragedy. πŸ„ 🎭

πŸ’Ό Day to day, I work with

You can find me in our work Slack sharing all sorts of neat things you can do with all that fun stuff and probably find out how I've broken and maybe fixed something too. πŸ˜€

πŸ‘Ύ I play with

  • All sorts of handy Raspberry Pi projects, including
  • I'm getting into the Flipper Zero lately - it's so handy and mischievous! (some fun uses)
  • Video games in a Windows VM on my Fedora desktop with libvirt, KVM, and a custom Linux kernel to pass hardware to it. It's got about 5% or so performance drop (just looking at frame rates) over a native install. You should check it out - code and write-up on how it works.

I have an awesome life outside of tech, so while I have a few projects that I enjoy, nothing above is close to where I spend most of my time / energy. If you need anything of mine above fixed, please feel free to fork it and send me a pull request! ❀️

🌸 Heads up!

  • 🌱 I’m currently studying to sit for my OSCP certification and learning the ropes at a container security startup.
  • 🎀 Public speaking is fun! Check out what I've been up to here.
  • πŸ˜„ Pronouns: she/her
  • ❓ Looking for my rΓ©sumΓ©? It's here, but you can also find some of what I've been up to in my profile. If you want to know about where else I've worked and went to school, you should go to LinkedIn.
  • πŸ’¬ Want to chat? I'm on Mastodon.
