My Work
My work focuses on data privacy. I advise on inquiries and requests we receive from the public, the community, the Foundation, and other entities—which so far has not included extraterrestrial life, but my Twilight Zone heart can dream.
About Me
My first edit to Wikipedia was in 2010 as part of a school book review, for which my classmates and I earned the following talk page comment: “This isn't a school book review; it's a Wikipedia article.” I did not know about talk pages at that time, but remained interested in Wikipedia and its editors and joined the Foundation as an attorney roughly 10 years later.

I work for or provide services to the Wikimedia Foundation, and this is the account I try to use for edits or statements I make in that role. However, the Foundation does not vet all my activity, and edits, statements, or other contributions made by this account may not reflect the views of the Foundation.
