I started IT-NTL years ago with a somewhat different purpose. I haven't done much with it for a couple years but held onto it anyway. </p><p style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; color: rgb(32, 31, 30); font-family: "Segoe UI", "Segoe UI Web (West European)", "Segoe UI", -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif;

I've known him a few years and he's probably the most interesting interview guest I can think of so I'm glad he agreed to do it. Sign up if you want to hear his thoughts on his own life and career. Wins, regrets, struggles, fun stories. I find it very encouraging to hear the human side of tech and cybersecurity, if you do too, you'll love this.</p><p style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; color: rgb(32, 31, 30); font-family: "Segoe UI", "Segoe UI Web (West European)", "Segoe UI", -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif;

Gotta be willing to get up early on a Saturday/Sunday and spend all day (remotely or in-person) with some fun teachers who you may or may not know real well.</p><p style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
