Principal Software Engineer, Wikimedia Foundation

About me

I live in Brooklyn, NY. Before joining the Wikimedia team, I worked for 4 years as a sysadmin and software engineer for CouchSurfing.org, and helped scale it while it grew from 300K to 4M users. Modern physics is exciting, bicycles are fun, voices are pretty.

My work

I am on the Data Platform Engineering team. My work primarily focuses on infrastructure for usages of data at and outside of the WMF.

Disclaimer: 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, so edits, statements, or other contributions made by this account may not reflect the views of the Foundation.
