A portrait of me taken by my wife on a hiking trail off of Emerald Bay campground in Lake Tahoe, California.

I have mixed feelings about Wikipedia. I have mostly used it for quick and dirty answers to various curious questions, but my interest in book history and the future of free information and open source projects has given me an increased interest in the project. I have since made a few minor contributions, and I routinely reverse vandalism when I see it.

About Me edit

I am a traveling philosopher, computer programmer, teacher, photographer, etc. I am married, and have a daughter. I have a broad range of interests, but I received my B.A. with a double major in English and History, with a minor in Education from Hampshire College in February, 2009. From an academic perspective, my specialty could be considered the history and literature of Christianity in Europe and the near East, with particular attention to English puritanism. I wrote my undergraduate thesis on the conceptions of "reason" and "imagination" presented in the works of John Milton and William Blake.

For a great deal more information about me, only some of which is related to Wikipedia and the free information / open source movement in general, you could check out my website.
