"As the Global Communications Manager at the Wikimedia Foundation, I have the pleasure of championing one of the most important projects in human history."

About me

From my bio:

I'm a writer and photographer who moonlights all day as a press wrangler. I absolutely love writing. I geek out on grammar and syntax and turns of phrase (yes, I think Elements of Style is great reading and yes I'm a serial comma kinda guy).

My work

In the role of Global Communications Manager for the Wikimedia Foundation, I work to support the community of communications volunteers representing Wikimedia chapters around the world. With them, I help craft the global story of Wikipedia and the Wikimedia Foundation, while working to increase the population of editors, raise funds from our readers, and serve our enormous volunteer community. I'm accountable for promoting the Wikimedia Foundation mission and vision through our public communications materials, including press releases, our social media channels, and community listservs. Every day I have the privilege of conversing with the the dynamic community of Wikimedians, as well as the world’s top reporters, bloggers and thought leaders.
