About

Hi, I’m Dirk — a security engineer with a deep passion for skateboarding and digital forensics. I help my company protect networks and systems against evolving cybersecurity threats through a mix of technical expertise and continuous learning.

Skateboarding is more than a hobby to me; it’s a source of creativity, freedom, and community. It shapes how I approach challenges — with persistence, balance, and a mindset open to innovation.

Beyond that, I’m an OpenBSD enthusiast. I’ve built an OpenBSD-based router and threat-hunting infrastructure to stay ahead in cybersecurity. I appreciate OpenBSD for its simplicity, security, and elegance — qualities I strive to bring to my work.

I’m also a longtime Emacs user, relying on it daily for coding, writing, and organizing my thoughts. It’s part of how I stay productive and focused.

In cybersecurity, I’m committed to continuous growth and adapting to new challenges. When I’m not working on security projects, you’ll find me skating or exploring new ideas inspired by Zen philosophy.

Stay tuned for updates on my journey as a security engineer, skateboarder, and lifelong learner.
