Liz Gore

Liz Gore rolled an unconventional character: 15 years as a theatre teacher, then multiclassed into cybersecurity. Now the Director of IT and Operations at Educators for Quality Alternatives in New Orleans, she earned her GFACT, GSEC, and GCIH from SANS Cyber Academy and presented at the SANS CloudSecNext Summit in 2025—proving that Intelligence doesn't have to be your highest stat. She maps cybersecurity careers to D&D ability scores to help neurodivergent professionals find their build.

When not securing school networks, she's probably adding to her 700+ hours in Baldur's Gate 3.
