Bio

Fell into web content and tech support somewhat by default, and am a little bemused by the whole thing, honestly. My hobbies include hiking, writing, drawing, and reading – a lot, pretty much everything I can get hold of.

Education

BAs in English Lit and Anthropology, and wishing now that I’d spent more time in science than the humanities. I did get in some nice time with astronomy (planetary and general), oceanography, and statistics. I’m taking a continuing-ed course in museum studies right now… not sure if that was a good idea or not, long term.

Career

Currently working in web content at an internet marketing company, previous jobs at my university’s bookstore in the textbook department, doing admin at a small internet company, audio-visual support at the University of Washington, and working at the Children’s Museum and Pacific Science Center in Seattle.
