Current OSM US Board Member.
I’ve done quite a bit of mapping in Washington state but am always interested in finding ways to show areas of the map that could use some attention. Definitely let me know if you’d like to help out!
I also love writing about my experiences finding workflows that help me map quickly and reliably. Feel free to look through my Diary entries for ideas. If you see a big changeset of mine, and would like to hear how I approached it I’m always happy to write things down.
If you find something I’ve edited that doesn’t look quite right, definitely let me know. Happy mapping!
