I'm Victoria Drake.

I bridge gaps between executive teams and tech teams, with a focus on cybersecurity, software development processes, and leadership. You can find my resume here.

I love open source

I enjoy building open source products, projects, and communities. I earned the annual Top Contributor award from freeCodeCamp for three consecutive years. I was also recognized two years in a row as a Distinguished Author on the DEV.to developer platform. I’ve written for multiple business and software engineering publications across the web as well as here on my blog.

I also serve as a core maintainer and co-author of the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) Web Security Testing Guide. You can find out more about my open-source work at github.com/victoriadrake.
