I mentioned this quote and forgot who said it and who shared it and wanted to give credit where credit is due
It all started with a dream two weeks ago…look at your girl now! My first sourdough boule (round loaf)!
Genuine question for my fellow CTI folks: Does anyone else instinctively say “the threat actors” instead of “the threat actor”? 😅
Turns out it wasn’t “just anxiety.” After 20+ years, I was diagnosed with POTS. Already feeling better with treatment. Now I need to figure out 150g+ of protein a day before Hacker Summer Camp. Travel-friendly protein recommendations welcome!

📅 Mark your calendars!! 🕸️🍯April 24th! Dropping two new characters into the Mighty Universe!! Both books will be available on Amazon.
The best advice I ever ignored: Alter your resume for each job you apply to. I just do not have the time and energy to change my resume so many times. Instead, I use that time to network. One of the most underrated skills in the tech space is the ability to network.

Three things I wish I knew before starting in CTI: 1. You are going to repeat yourself a lot, and that is normal. You may often find yourself saying “remember I told you about this weeks ago.” It is easy to get frustrated when nobody reads your report, but repetition is part of the job.
Happy Friday, we made it through another week. Remember, if you find something today, no you didn't. That's the Monday's problem.
