About Me

[edit]

I am currently an upcoming freshman at Trinity University (as of the fall of 2021). My interest in joining Wikipedia was piqued one night when me and my friend decided to join Wikipedia to be able to edit articles. As I am aware, he lost interest, but in contrast, I still want to be able to help this project primarily since

  • I have used Wikipedia many times as a way to gain a greater understanding on a particular subject which is a favor I wish to return, and
  • collaborative projects like these are an interesting hobby to me and something that I enjoy doing.

I share many of the values that Wikipedia has. This access to a free range of information from many different reliable sources is something I really love about Wikipedia and the respective community of content providers.

Wikipedia Articles

[edit]

I do not mind working on a variety of different articles or subjects whether this be in subtle ways of editing details in articles or in creating an entirely new article. It is not really a matter of ability or skill but mainly time that determines which articles I work on and/or which projects I tailor myself to.
