• The 2024 Knowledge is Human campaign
• Wiki Minutes – animated Wikimedia explainers for public audiences

A few past projects:

• The Wikimedia Sound Logo contest
• Trust in the age of COVID-19
• We Miss Turkey campaign against the 2017 Turkish block of Wikipedia
• New Readers awareness campaigns in Nigeria, India, Iraq, and Mexico
• Celebrating Wikipedia's 15th birthday
• Celebrating Wikipedia's 20th birthday

Über mich

I studied Modern Culture & Media at Brown University and interned at Harvard University's Berkman Center for Internet & Society. I began editing Wikipedia in 2005 and attend my first Wikimedia event at the British Museum in 2011.

As a Master's student at the University of Cambridge, I completed the first academic study of Instagram, focusing on what motivates public creativity on digital networks. From 2011 to 2015, I worked in social media marketing in New York City and played a lot of soccer.

I love Arsenal FC, coffee, whiskey, and block-printing. Since moving to California, I've become a dedicated open water swimmer, rower, and surfer.
