Hey everyone - @GoddessAnkhanu is an aspiring #Austin #hacker who is looking to get started in #infosec! She's interested in resources, groups, advice, etc. to start her journey. Feel free to send anything you have her way!
@epixoip thanks so much for the intro Jeremi!! I’m new to this side of the world. I’m a quick learner and open to any Junior positions available remotely. I’ve worked with web development (front-end) , Unix, Linux, Oracle, and Red Hat (rhel). I’m looking forward to learning as much as I can in #infosec and to network with everyone!

@GoddessAnkhanu @epixoip I started with CGI scripts more than 25y ago 😅
@greeneyed_dlj @epixoip wow that’s awesome!! I feel like I’ve entered the Hall of Geniuses!!! I hope the magic will rub on me😂
@GoddessAnkhanu @epixoip
Lol, no genious here, just experienced.
That's why I enjoy trying new fields every now and then. It helps you keep your feet on the ground 🤣 .
Just remember everybody was new at some point, so keep on going and have fun along the way! 👍
