Hi 👋, thanks for stopping by, here's a bit about me.
About Me
Hi there, I'm Matthew Fosse, a 27-year-old software engineer and hardware hacker from Florida. With over 7 years of professional experience, I specialize in mobile development, software development, and vulnerability research. I have experience analyzing hardware, software, and network applications with and without source code. My expertise lies in Web Development, Reverse Engineering, and Hardware Hacking, and I have extensive development and reverse engineering experience with Android and Ghidra in particular.
I'm also an avid maker and enjoy working on my own projects, ranging from custom drivers for gaming controllers to cryptocurrency wallets to modded iPod Classics. My skills include Software Development, Electrical Engineering, 3D printing (Fusion 360), Game Development, and more.
You can find most of my projects either here on my website or on my GitHub https://github.com/fossephate
