Who are you and what do you do?

Jon Oberheide. I'm a PhD candidate at the University of Michigan where I also obtained my BS and MS. My interests lie in all aspects of security, whether code, network, or physical. If I'm not writing papers/grants for our research group, I'm usually hacking on a pet project or breaking things. My favorite pastime is attempting to find free time in my life to develop a favorite pastime.

Why are you attending ArbCamp?

I share a common vision with Dug and hope to rejuvenate the hacker culture that once thrived here in Ann Arbor. There's an enormous amount of technical talent between the University and various tech companies in AA, so I hope events such as ArbCamp will help bring these many disjoint groups together.

If you were to lead a session, what would it be about?

Likely something security-related, yet accessible to the average a2geek. A hands-on demonstration of various lockpicking tools and methods could make for an interesting session.

Tell us one random fact about yourself.

I'm not allergic to the saliva of mosquitos.

Where can we find you?
