Finally getting around to an #intro post. I'm a first gen US born Portuguese (#Azores) binational, with Brazilian husband (Portuguese language FTW). Queer (he/they) #Leftist from the #SFBayArea.

Using a late-in-life CS degree to work as a (hearing) #SignLanguage #Interpreter specialized in #Tech interpreting. Former interpreter coordinator for #DeafCon.

I pretend to understand academic #Linguistics research, #Conlang enthusiast, and former #Handbell ringer. Have dabbled in the #FiberArts and enjoy games of the #VideoGames and #BoardGames variety.

Hashtag dump: #ASL, #DeafCon, #Defcon, #Terp, #Crochet, #Handbells, #TechTerp, #Deaf, #ASLInterpreter, #SignLanguageInterpreter

#deafcon is soliciting donations to bring #ASL interpreters to #defcon this year. Can you help?
