Saturday May 18th is your DC404 hybrid meeting
All ages/skill levels welcome. No dues, feel free to bring new friends.
DC404 is experimenting with running hybrid meetings, so like all hacking, we expect issues, but we will improvise, adapt, and overcome.
Our in person meeting is at Manual’s Tavern and our online meeting is via Big Blue Button.
The meeting speaker (when we have one) will be streamed to both the in person and online meetings.
Shelby Wheeler will be presenting: Privacy by Design: Building Trust from the Inside Out
Have you ever used an app that feels intrusive, where privacy seems like an afterthought? That’s where privacy engineering comes in. We’re not just about settings and menus; we’re the architects who build privacy right into the core of technology.
Imagine designing a beautiful, functional house. A standard builder might focus on aesthetics, but a privacy-conscious architect would also consider hidden compartments and secure access points. Similarly, privacy engineers go beyond surface-level features. We design the entire system – from the user interface (front-end) to the data storage (back-end) – with privacy as a fundamental principle.
My name is Shelby Wheeler I’m a Privacy Engineer at Google with a passion for tackling complex challenges at the forefront of technology. I hold a CISSP and spend my weekends doing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and eating hot pot.
Inside of Google, I am in Workspace where I navigate the novel privacy implications of emerging technologies, such as Gen-Ai, shaping data governance and safeguarding children’s data globally. My team’s work touches over 3 billion consumer and enterprise users daily. Prior to this, I honed my cyber security expertise in insider threat mitigation and data loss prevention at The Coca-Cola Company.
My diverse skillset spans coding, cloud engineering, risk management, machine learning, encryption, and translation of privacy regulations into design and architecture review, all while allowing me to bridge the gap between security and innovation.
Join me as I explore the ever-evolving landscape of data privacy!

We will have time after the presentation for people to to share what they are working on. Your project doesn’t have to be complete and slides are not required (like show-n-tell).
The in person meeting and online meeting spaces will open at 13:00 on Saturday so that people will have time to connect and work out any technical issues.
The meeting will start at 14:00.
