Hello there,


my name is
Kaih White
Who am I?
Picture of me

I am a tinkerer who grew up on systems that were before my time and got to see the information revolution unfold before my eyes. Every system has always been a magical black box waiting to have its contents emptied. It all started with modifying game code to find exploits and dissesemlbing electric skateboards to replace components for friends. I didn't realize it, but I was practicing my ability to understand systems and reverse engineer them. My fascination with systems and solutions only grows with every opportunity I have to work on complex topics and diverse problems.
