Doyle Turner
I am a software engineer, a father, a motorcycle enthusiast, an ally, an entrepreneur, a mentor, a teacher, a lifelong learner, a polyamorist, an artist, a poet, an author, and a tattooed furball who is always the DM.
Within this site you are going to find a blog with an assortment of post styles, content, and context. I've read all of the branding suggestions about finding a niche and sticking to it. I'm just my own little notch that's made of burnt toast and broken shoestrings. In the words of a once great sailor - "I am what I am."
The sole purpose of this site is my amusement. An outlet to share what I choose to share. A place for sharing the outcome of my own little projects (art, technology, gaming, community) and thoughts (the multiverse, quantum entanglement, the freedom of sobriety, why tabs are more reasonable than spaces).
These are my stories (don don).
Professional Stuff
I’m a veteran, technologist, and lifelong builder with nearly two decades of experience in software engineering, cybersecurity, and cloud-native architecture. Today, I lead Incremental Systems—a veteran-owned consultancy based in Somerset, Kentucky—where we help organizations create secure, scalable systems that truly empower people.
My journey has taken me from serving in the KY Army National Guard (at 17) to leading technical strategy for startups, enterprises, and global organizations. Along the way, I’ve built security programs, delivered hands-on workshops, and guided teams through complex transformations in DevOps, AI, and compliance-driven software development.
Before founding Incremental Systems, I worked at Microsoft as a Senior Software Engineer, where I focused on secure development practices, observability, and responsible AI. I helped scale a Security Champions Program across dozens of teams and contributed to initiatives that shaped secure-by-design patterns for modern workloads.
What drives me? Building technology that opens doors—through mentorship, education, and accessible solutions—so others can step into opportunity, not just watch it from the sidelines.
Most recently I've been doing my own thing. Over the years I've create a backlog of projects that I think are worthwhile from some games to niche social applications and security tools.

As others were—I have not seen
As others saw—I could not bring
My passions from a common spring—"
