Blind Entrepreneur

I Am a Blind Man

Most people who meet me online don’t realize that I am blind because I am a highly functioning blind person. Those who meet me in person, often don’t realize it until I take out my cane. I am blessed if you want to call it that with a small amount of usable vision. I have no vision at all in my left eye and I have an incredibly small amount of vision in my right eye. I use a cane. I have a dog, who makes sure I don’t bump into things. He’s a bit quirky, and, when he’s in a good mood, he doesn’t walk me into traffic.

At the age of nine, I began taking apart computers and trying to learn programing I was 12, when I got my first (quote unquote computer). It was a piece of Shit, 6 gigs of RAM, dual core Pentium three system with Windows Vista on it. But, boy, oh boy, was it great.

Cybersecurity at 13

I began diving heavily into cybersecurity when I was 13. I learned a lot about computers during that time, and I learned a lot about people as well. Social engineering is what we call it now in the realm of security.

Anyone that has been in the IT space, specifically in cyber, and has ever like seen Cool Hacker Man, watched the Matrix, Sneakers, or War Games, you know, exactly what I’m talking about.
