Zoey Goetsch (Art MFA 99) graduated from Caltech’s Cybersecurity Bootcamp in 2025. She is the creator of the CyberHeroZ YouTube channel, featuring cybersecurity-themed projects showcased at Caltech and Simplilearn/Fullstack Academy, including The QR Code Social Engineering Exploit (The Pizza Deal) AKA Quishing (2025). She also co-created The Heartbleed Exploit (2023).

As a multidisciplinary artist, Goetsch wrote, directed, filmed, and edited two hybrid art-documentary shorts: The Memory Project: Art in the Time of COVID (2024), featuring her Cloud/Water Memory series oil paintings, and Taffy the Superhero: What Can Happen If You Love and Empower Your Dog (2024), documenting the transformation of Taffy the dog into a service animal and superhero. Both films were screened at the 2024 Conference for Global Transformation, selected by Landmark Wisdom, and are available on YouTube.

Her Memory Project: Cloud Series—paintings of clouds and water created from memory—were exhibited in projection form at CalArts’ Center for Integrative Media in May 2024. Additionally, Goetsch’s paintings and musical selections were featured in the 2023 collaborative video Being Creative, screened at the 2023 Conference for Global Transformation.
