I have been a Wikipedia for six years. My editing efforts focus on agriculture (and all its various aspects), science, STEM, art, writing/expanding information about women, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ individuals. I currently serve as a Wikipedian-in-Residence and Outreach Specialist at the U.S. Department of Agriculture National Agricultural Library (USDA NAL). However, I also work on projects and attend/assist/coordinate events outside of my work at NAL, mostly in relationship with Wikimedia DC and in the Midwest. I am passionate about sharing the various Wikimedia projects with others and teaching/encouraging others to edit. Outside of Wikipedia, I'm interested in information access and librarianship, agriculture/food systems/agricultural law, art/fiber art, and a smattering of things. |
