Hi. I'm HeavyMetalHero. If it wasn't obvious I am neither a professional writer or a web designer. My job isn't at all tech related but I love technology. I'm constantly trying to learn new skills and play with things that I barely understand.

I'm not a hacker but I enjoy hacker things and learning hacker skills. Calling me a script kiddie is an insult to script kiddies. I went to DEFCON this summer and will be attending some more local conventions it the next few months. I like playing with hacker toys such as the Flipper Zero, Pwnagotchi, and the Hack RF One. I'm currently using TryHackMe and learning a ton and having a blast. I'm also not a locksmith but I enjoy locksport.

Many of my friends think I'm really good with a computer. The truth is I'm not. The only reason I know how to fix a computer is because I break mine a lot. I'm proficient at googling error codes. I have tried programming. Sometimes things work.

I also enjoy other geek related hobbies including:

• 3D printing
• Meshtastic
• TTRPGs (Pathfinder 2E)
• Board games
