"Knowledge is the foundation of freedom and resilience." - n4tive

Portrait of n4tive

Hey, I’m n4tive—a 48-year-old, living in Puerto Rico, US, with a love for exploring the wild sides of tech like privacy, cybersecurity, and ethical hacking, alongside passions for politics, gaming (especially retro!), martial arts, hiking, survivalism, science, and philosophy. Living on the island gives me a unique lens to dive into these interests, whether I’m tinkering with digital security or hitting the trails for an adventure.This site is my little online hangout where I share my thoughts, projects, and discoveries in a simple, no-frills way—think minimalist web design with a retro twist. I’m all about keeping things unbloated and meaningful, from hacking for good to pondering life’s big questions. Check out my blog, games, and boards to see what I’m up to, and feel free to join the conversation!
