About me
[edit]I am a student at Brigham Young University studying Editing and Publishing and Digital Humanities. I am always seeking to improve my writing and editing skills. I speak Spanish proficiently after serving a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Los Angeles County, California. I grew up in Alpharetta, Georgia. I am here on Wikipedia to improve the accuracy of pages - to research, edit, and write with that goal in mind.
You can read more about me on my website.
Conflict of interest statement
[edit]I am the Lead Student Wikipedia Editor for the Harold B. Lee Library. I am employed by Brigham Young University (BYU) to facilitate factual information on Wikipedia. My boss, Rachel Helps, is the Coordinator of Wikipedia Initiatives and the library's Wikipedian-in-Residence. I am paid by the hour, not according to any specific contribution. Behind every edit I make is the intention to provide unbiased, well-sourced, accurate information for long-time Wikipedians and curious visitors alike. However, if my affiliation with the Harold B. Lee Library or BYU presents a potential COI or PAID concern for you, please let me know via my talk page.
You can find our GLAM page here.
In June 2020 I began working as a Teaching Assistant for Dr. Nancy Turley's ELANG 273 (English Language & Linguistics Research Methods) class at BYU. As a part of my job, I taught students the basics of Wikipedia and used my personal account, EternalAhsoka, to keep track of my students' edits. I developed a custom training course about Wikipedia, using PowerPoint, to use in the class.
