Mark Thomas Firestone

Mark's fascination with technology led to some mischievous adventures at his high school in Fresno. One memorable prank involved creating a batch file that triggered a "net send" command, which sent messages to everyone on the school's network. While the prank was harmless fun for Mark, it did catch the attention of the school's network administrators. Rather than facing punishment, he was offered an unexpected opportunity: a job in cybersecurity.
