Joined 20 February 2017
My current affiliation is with Wikimedia Commons. I am interested in:
Photography.
- In the last two years I have participated in over 40 editathons and other Wikimedia events. My photographs have been used in several dozen Wikipedia biography articles, as well as the 2016 Executive Director Report to the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees, the 2014-2015 Wikimedia DC Annual Report, the Signpost, the Folgier Shakespeare Library blog, and the National Geographic blog.
- I would like to learn more about editing and uploading video.
Public policy.
- I am currently tracking internet-related legislation introduced to the U.S. Congress by Rep. Jackie Speier and Rep. Katherine Clark.
Cross-cultural collaboration.
- In light of the current restrictions on international travel, I would be interested in exploring alternate ways to collaborate across borders, in particular with the Arabic-speaking world, inshallah. ¹
I have submitted proposals for the following presentations:
My personal web page, which I don't particularly keep updated, is at:

¹ Note: there is a collaborative page about the progress of this (international collaboration) at User:Econterms/Levant-English meeting, see also the Aug. 29 event Arabic Wikipedia Day Edit-a-thon sponsored by WMDC and Wikimedia Levant, plus an informal user group at WikiProject Arabic.
