My national service position as an Americorp CTC*VISTA Leader (http://ctcvista.org) funds my time working for Acorn (a grassroots hacker collective, http://www.acornactivemedia.com), through which I work on projects like the Chambana.net (http://www.chambana.net) community webhosting project in cooperation with the Urbana-Champaign Independent Media Center (http://www.ucimc.org) and the Champaign-Urbana Wireless Internet Foundation (http://www.cuwin.net). Through my work at those organizations, I am also on the Champaign-Urbana Broadband Advisory Committee and help to organize the Open-Source Wireless Coalition (http://oswc.net) and the International Summit for Community Wireless Networks (http://wirelesssummit.org). I was recently added as an Adjunct Technologist in the Open Technology Institute (technology policy thinktank, http://measurementlab.org). I have a degree in Philosophy and Computer Science, and dabble equally in systems administration, Drupal site development, and wireless hackery.
