## About Me

## Folder Structure
These notes are living documents. As I come across information I may need to reference in the future I add it to these notes. The folder structure is explained below.
- **Coffee** - My Coffee tracker, so I can make a consistent cup of coffee.
- **DE&TH** - Detection Engineering and Threat Hunting content. This can usually be found on my site ajking.io.
- **Knowledge Base** - All my notes and cheatsheets on random topics.
- **Research via AI** - A place to drop AI generated "research".
- **Talks** - Links to my talks.
- **Writing** - My random non-security related writings.
