| about me = My first edit to Wikipedia was in 2006. I've been performing gnomish edits since 2008 as [[w:en:User:Jtmorgan|Jtmorgan]].

I have a PhD in Human Centered Design & Engineering from the [[w:en:University of Washington|University of Washington]] and a BA in philosophy and classics from [[w:en:St._John%27s_College_(Annapolis/Santa_Fe)|St. John's College]].

Areas of Wikipedia that I've studied include discussions around controversial article topics[http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?doid=1940761.1940763][http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/articleDetails.jsp?arnumber=6149246], Wikipedia policy [http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1880098], new editor engagement[http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=2441871], and the editor decline[http://abs.sagepub.com/content/57/5/664]. I have also performed design research on other online collaboration systems, like [http://livingvotersguide.org this one].

I am a voracious and omnivorous reader, and a passionately amateurish musician. In my (ever-diminishing) spare time, I also enjoy trail running, kayaking and a good game of [[w:en:racquetball|racquetball]].

| about my work = I work in the [[foundation:Staff and contractors#Research|design research team]]. From August 2013 - May 2015, I was part of the Grantmaking department (now part of [[Staff_and_contractors#Community_Engagment|Community Engagement]]).

I started working with the Foundation during the [[meta:Research:WSOR11|2011 Summer of Research]], where I worked on several exploratory research investigations focused on new editor participation patterns([[m:Research:Alternative_lifecycles_of_new_users|1]],[[m:Research:NewUserHelp-FullResearchReport|2]]), and WikiProjects ([[m:Research:Wikiproject_Participation_%26_Mentorship|1]],[[m:Research:Visualizing_Wikiproject_Activity|2]]). As a Wikimedia Research Fellow, I helped design and launch the [[w:en:WP:Teahouse|WP:Teahouse]], a new user peer-support hub on the English Wikipedia. Info on how Teahouse came about, and why it is the way it is, available [[m:Teahouse|here]].
