I first began editing Wikipedia in 2011, but was mostly inactive between 2013 and 2019. I got back into it with renewed enthusiasm in 2020. After attending WikiCon Aotearoa/West Coast 2021 I have become involved in a diverse range of other topics. In 2022, I made a significant contribution to the project WP:GLAM/WestCoastWPAL/2022, creating 12 new articles on West Coast topics and expanding many others.

I am currently a member of the management committee of Wikimedia Aotearoa New Zealand, an Incorporated Society and Registered Charity in New Zealand.

This editor is a Veteran Editor II and is entitled to display this Bronze Editor Star.
