I'm Preston — 🔓 hacker, 🛠️ builder, ⚔️ fencer, 🌍 full-time nomad. I cofounded a 🎮 gaming studio, run an 🤖 AI development agency, and spent 4+ years volunteering in 🇺🇦 Ukraine doing aerospace engineering during the conflict. I also happen to be a certified professional hacker, so yes, your WiFi password is safe with me. Btw I'm not a nudist just in case you wondered 😂 When I'm not building things or crossing borders, I'm chasing down the best 🥩 meat dishes on whatever continent I'm on, swapping travel hacks with strangers, and collecting stories worth telling. ⚔️ Saber fencer — I'll show you a move or two if I've got my gear. I've been in a few 🎬 documentaries.
