Start your Sunday with a beautiful 3.7 mile, 800 ft elevation gain hike up to Eagle Rock with Cybersecurity Professor Gregg Ibbotson. After chatting and taking some photos, we’ll head back down and on our way back to USC, stop by Caffe Luxxe in the Palisades for some food, pastries, and tea/coffee. Gregg is from England and would love to give you advice on which teas to drink (spoiler- it’s Earl Grey).

Gregg Ibbotson hails all the way from the UK, where he received a Bachelor’s degree in Human Biology, and a Master’s Degree in Information Systems Security. He worked in the cybersecurity industry before transitioning into lecturing and coming to join us here at USC! When he’s not teaching students about the flaws in USC’s security (jk there are none— please don’t take away his visa), Gregg enjoys singing, writing poetry, and acting.
