| about me = I've been an editor on the Wikimedia projects since 2004 and have contributed over 50,000 edits (mostly on English Wikipedia and Commons). Besides editing Wikipedia, I like to study bugs and spiders and sometimes do volunteer work with the organization Nerds for Nature. My other hobbies include mapping on openstreetmap.org, reading books about science and history, hiking, and doing macro photography. I enjoy traveling to warm climates and can often be heard complaining about how cold it is in San Francisco. Despite the suboptimal climate, I do enjoy the food and culture of the Bay Area.
| about my work = I've worked as a software engineer at the Wikimedia Foundation since 2010. I first worked as a developer for the fundraising team during the [[mw:2010 Fundraiser|2010]] and [[mw:2011 Wikimedia fundraiser|2011 fundraisers]], mostly working on [[mw:Extension:CentralNotice|CentralNotice]] and front-end components of [[mw:Extension:DonationInterface|DonationInterface]]. After that, I helped develop the [[mw:Extension:UploadWizard|UploadWizard]] and [[mw:Extension:WikiLove|WikiLove]] extensions. In 2012, I joined the Editor Engagement team and worked on [[mw:Extension:ArticleCreationWorkflow|ArticleCreationWorkflow]], [[mw:Extension:PageTriage|PageTriage]], and [[mw:Extension:Echo|Echo]] (the current Wikipedia notification system). Since 2013, I've worked on the [[mw:Mobile web/Team|Mobile Web team]]. I've also done a few random side projects like [[mw:Extension:Disambiguator|Disambiguator]], [[mw:Extension:CongressLookup|CongressLookup]], and the [[mw:Extension:Example|Example extension]].
