I live in Seattle, Washington, and I've also lived in Oregon, Colorado, and Minnesota. I have a M.S. in geology. I post photos on Flickr. I made my first Wikipedia edit on December 20, 2004.
I am an active contributor to BWCAWiki, a wiki about the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness in northeastern Minnesota. You can contribute!

[edit] To-do
[edit] In progress
- adding to geography stubs: Antarctica, Colorado, Midwestern U.S., Oregon, Utah, Washington, Western U.S.
- science stubs: geologist, geology
- other stubs: beer and brewery, climbing, Colorado
[edit] In the future
- creation of a Laurentide Ice Sheet article? The "Glaciation in North America" section of the ice age article could be re-organized to better describe the continental glaciation as a single, massive ice sheet with multiple examples of its effects, rather than currently sounding like random collection of events. More work on geology articles.
- integrating a geologic perspective into the absolute dating article
