Drew Fisher

Drew Fisher is a technology enthusiast who cares deeply about usability, security, and agency. He earned his M.S. in computer science at U.C. Berkeley working with Björn Hartmann and David Wagner. While there, he helped reverse-engineer drivers for the Kinect and showed that people make rational choices about sharing personal information when given appropriate tools. After graduating in 2012, he joined AeroFS, where he built usable, secure self-hosted collaboration tools for enterprises, dealing with everything from security review and response to filesystem change notification APIs, distributed algorithms, developer tooling, and cluster management. In 2015, he joined Sandstorm to focus on contributing more back to the Free Software community. In his free time, he loves solving and writing puzzlehunts, playing board games, tinkering with hardware, and eating delicious foods.
