About
Paul has a passion for security, education, and bad puns, bringing them together whenever possible. He has spent the last 2 decades protecting people from the usual suspects of hackers, criminals, and bored teenagers and is focused on teaching how to connect with people through storytelling and energizing presentations to change behaviors. He enables organizations to train their users and reduce the element of human risk.
Prior to working in security and education, Paul had 6 years of swashbuckling adventures with the US Navy. He’s a big fan of colleges, having attended 7 different ones. He most recently earned a doctorate in education and teaches technology content to high schoolers, college students, and adults. He's figured out that strong security starts with teaching how to behave online. It isn’t rocket science, but just in case he has a degree in that, too.
