Hello Everyone,
Please welcome Peter Youngmeister who joins us today (7/9/12) as a full-time member of the Technical Operations staff. He has been working as a contractor with the Foundation since last March 2011. Prior to that, he was with another great non-profit, kiva.org.
Peter lives in Ann Arbor, MI, but is a Bay Area native and is around the office fairly often. You may have also run into him on IRC as notpeter. He is excited to be finding a more permanent home in the Wikimedia Ops team, so that he can continue protecting the data and fighting for the user. His interests include, metal working, fire sculpture and fire performance art, fine tea and fine liquors, and vegan cooking.
Thanks, CT
Welcome Peter! Vegan cooking is by far the best kind.
