Hi
I'm a software person keen on public interest technology.
I helped create civiform.us to make it easier for Seattleites to access affordability programs and then spent a few years bringing it to other govs around in the US.
Other interests:
- the outdoors
- piano
- transit
- mutual aid
- food

RFK Jr. is going to end CDC recommendations for most childhood vaccines.
It will take a few years before the deaths and disabilities ramp up to a level that even the most vile Republican cannot tolerate.

"[The Trump] admin looks at the flourishing of city life wherever it may be across this country as a threat to its agenda."
