Charlie Gerard

Charlie Gerard’s site is a personal portfolio that brings together her side projects, conference talks, and writing. She works as a senior research engineer in cybersecurity and describes herself as a creative technologist, and the site reflects that dual focus by presenting experiments that sit at the intersection of security research, frontend development, and human-computer interaction.

The projects section is the core of the site, showcasing prototypes such as running replay attacks in the browser with HackRF devices, hacking cars using JavaScript, controlling interfaces with wireless earbuds and on-face interactions, and pulling live data from passing airplanes. Each entry links to a dedicated project page with more detail, and the speaking and blog sections extend the same curiosity into talks and written explanations.

Readers who benefit most are frontend developers, security researchers, and makers interested in creative coding, machine learning in the browser, and physical computing. The material assumes some technical background, so newcomers may find individual project pages more approachable than the full range of experiments.

A practical way to use the site is to browse the projects page for inspiration, then follow the linked talks or blog posts to understand how each prototype was built. Visitors can also subscribe to the weekly newsletter on creative technology or connect through Twitter and GitHub for updates.
