Laurie Kirk — Researcher
I am a researcher specializing in decompilation, deobfuscation and advertising fraud. Currently, I work at Google. I previously worked as a Reverse Engineer at Microsoft and a Software Engineer at Northrop Grumman. Outside of work, I am active as a conference speaker (DEFCON, REcon, Objective By The Sea, etc), industry mentor (GirlSecurity), and I run a YouTube channel (@LaurieWired) that covers all sorts of in-depth reverse-engineering, low level programming, and computer science topics. I received my Bachelor's Degree from Florida State University in Computer Science with a minor in Math. There, I dove into learning computer architecture, algorithms, and my favorite, low-level programming.
