I'm an attorney -- a Patent attorney with experience in copyright, data law, and contract law. I'm a big fan of software freedom and think federated networks are part of the secret sauce that will make the internet right.

In my spare time, I enjoy judging moot court competitions, watching absurdist comedy, and writing about menswear.
