About Me

My self-summary

Greetings. You may refer to me as Agent F5N. I am a data coordinator and government encryption expert. I believe that just like my favorite animal the armadillo, everything that is precious in this world (gems, money, my heart) should be buried beneath an impenetrable layer of security complete with a robust password. Consequently, I am very lonely, but this is the road I chose to tread. If you are reading this, maybe you could change that.

My favorite quotes

"I seek a beautiful girl. My life partner, my one coquette, the answer to my love’s duet."

- Prince Edward

"Whoah, I gotta lay off da nuts!"

- Pip in Andalasia

"And so, they all lived happily ever after."

- Pip in Andalasia

All three quotes and many more I can recite in person over coffee or tea come from 2007’s blockbuster Enchanted (my favorite movie. ever.)

My favorite pastime

For me, work never ends at the end of the workday. My personal love for secrecy and erecting barriers to access bleeds well into my pastime. I run community workshops for the eldery to develop simple rules that can be used to build difficult-to-guess but easy-to-remember passwords (recently inspired by a colleague who could simply never remember a work password). For example, I am pioneering a current approach where the user simply takes two things they absolutely love and enmeshes them, making a new hybrid nonsensical word by alternately using letters from each of the favorite things. Add an important number to the end of the hybrid word and simply end it all with an exclamation point. Simple, but effective.
