For her day job, InfoSteph serves as a regional information security analyst. Outside of work, however, InfoSteph has filled her life with all kinds of cool activities. She serves as a Lead for WoSEC Houston and a Lead for WISP DEFCON 2019. She has also started speaking at conferences this year, setting a personal goal for three speaking gigs for 2019 (the number is now four booked for 2019, two down!). She attends school full time, hoping to obtain her Bachelor\\u2019s by the end of the fall. She had the honor of being a delegate for Security Field Day 2. She writes blog posts on her website, StephAndSec.com, which is also her side business. And she is working on a course for LinkedIn Learning on Social Engineering and Security Awareness.

Outside of that, InfoSteph loves spending time with family and friends who bring good vibes only. She tweets, she \\u2018Grams and she reads up on ways to hack the mind.
