I'm excited to be helping with and contributing to Wikipedia!

Some of my interests:

• User Interface design
• Software development
• Education: specifically improving math and science education
• Music: classic rock and folk
• History of the women's movement
• Conservation practices and other efforts to protect the environment

I am originally from the Boston area, and I now live in the Pacific Northwest. Other than writing on Wikipedia, I spend my free time hiking, playing with my dogs, reading, and trying to keep up with my ever-growing garden.

Feel free to leave a note and say hi, or send me any feedback on being a great Wikipedia citizen!
