New Yorker, Software Engineer, he/him/his. Long time reader, recent editor. Currently working my way through Category:Articles with broken or outdated citations, Category:CS1 maint: archived copy as title, articles that say "the Ukraine" rather than "Ukraine" (see WP:DONTUSETHE), and History of the Jews in Leeds.
I strive to edit from a place of neutrality. That being said, I know I am only human; as such, if any of my personal beliefs, biases or characteristics creep into my edits, I apologize, and should be admonished. To make those beliefs, biases, and characteristics clear: I'm very left-wing; bisexual; a Jewish atheist (though I try not to be a jerk about religion); a supporter of a free Palestine; a feminist; a believer in trans rights; and pro-choice. On inclusionism-deletionism, I pick neither. I list these views not to promote them at all, but to lay all the cards on the table. If you believe my biases are making their way into my edits, please let me know, and I'll try to correct my behavior. I love WP precisely because of the neutrality it fosters, and I would hate to be a person who harms that neutrality.
COI info: I will not edit the pages for Zoom, NYU, and Drew, along with any other pages for which I can be construed to have a conflict of interest.
Full disclosure: more than a decade ago, I briefly edited Wikipedia under another account. I made only a few edits, all of which were of terrible quality, and most of which were in violation of COI policy. In my defense, I was very young. I will not give out the name of this old account, as doing so would reveal personal information I am not comfortable sharing. I'm on this account for a WP:CLEANSTART.
