About
Hello world, I'm Ashley Kang! I use design, code, and research to explore questions about how to make the secure thing easier to do. You may catch me lounging with a book and emotional support beverage, caring too much about skincare (get your K-beauty @ Costco!) and home decor, or getting injured while surfskating (GRLSWIRL <3).
I have a MS in computer science and a BA in a self-designed liberal arts concentration in art, media studies, and computer science. I started my career with a boutique creative agency-like collective and an award-winning university marketing team, then pivoted to cybersecurity thanks to a campus club of hackers (proud Offensive Security Society alum!) and a self-designed rotational program. I bring an interdisciplinary portfolio of training and experience in:
- Technology consulting: Web development, UI/UX design, web accessibility
- Security engineering: Product security, platform security
- Security consulting: Application security, penetration testing
- Security research: Malware analysis, cyber threat intelligence
