WikiConference North America, 2016

I have been a daily contributor to Wikipedia for sixteen years, and have become familiar with the processes and guidelines established by the Wikipedia community. To satisfy my insatiable curiosity, I am constantly researching a wide variety of topics, including: current events, landmarks and monuments, local history, music, politics, and public art.

I support Wikimedia Foundation projects and the open knowledge/free culture movement in general, and I am always looking for ways to help individuals and organizations collaborate with Wikipedia in mutually beneficial ways. An experienced researcher, writer, and editor able to navigate the Wikipedia community, I can promote articles to quality status, create and coordinate WikiProjects, organize in-person meetups, and provide training to new Wikipedians.

In May 2013, my Wikipedia work was featured in The Oregonian.[1] The feature was then covered by The Signpost, Wikipedia's community-written and community-edited newspaper (see "In the media"). I've had the pleasure of attending and co-organizing many local meetups. I've attended Wikimania three times, the Wikimedia Conference twice, and all eight in-person WikiConference North America (formerly WikiConference USA) events. I've served on related committees, as well as the Wikimedia Diversity Conference's Program Committee. I received the Notability Award "for contributions to notable topics in greater Boston" at WikiConference North America 2019, presented in the form of a 3D-printed barnstar!
