Welcome errant traveler....

Role at HackRVA

I currently serve as the Director of Communications and Planning. I also do the workshop planning for now until we find a director for education. I formerly served as the president from 2013-2015 until we reorganized to broader directorships. If you ever need help with hackrva issues, I can probably help - or point to someone that can.

I write a lot of blog posts, update the website & wiki, upload pictures, and stuff like that. If you want to work on stuff like that PLZ contact me - always need more of that!
