student and tinkerer. I'm now getting some home improvement
projects done just to take photos along the way, and lately I've
even been drawing a bit, too. |

personal areas of expertise and there's no obligation to do
anything more than you feel; it keeps a project this big from being
too overwhelming. |

teaching others how to do what I've done and wikiHow is an amazing
forum for doing so. |

| Author Summary: I discovered wikiHow on the yahoo! RSS
page. When I got curious about wikis (and how well they work), I
decided to work on some articles here at wikiHow. It started out as
an experiment and I never would have thought I'd become an admin. I
think editing is in my blood, which is ironic since my Mom is an
editor and I swore off journalism as a career choice. I'm a
self-proclaimed word nerd and sometimes find improper usage
unbearable to look at. In addition to my activities here at
wikiHow, I read, write a blog, listen to a lot of indie pop music,
and am very into film. In general I tend to love anything involving
writing and research. |
