Lloyd works as an identity analyst, a fancy contract-specific term meaning tech writer, in the Washington, D.C. area. After accepting his first tech comm position without knowing anything about the field, he discovered a passion for plain language and hasn't looked back since. His current work involves researching and writing about the intersection of digital privacy, security, and online identity. Lloyd has served as a student volunteer at the past two Summits and worked as a proposal reviewer for Summit 2017.

Lloyd earned his B.A. in English Literature & Creative Writing from Hood College and is currently completing an M.S. in Technical and Professional Communications through the University of Wisconsin-Stout.
