I am a Wikipedian and I hang out mostly at the English and Esperanto Wikipediae. I have a degree in physics, and my interests are rather widespread, including Arthropoda, Python, mountaineering and haiku. I am also a quote-collector and a camera-coolie.

Please leave me a message in case I can help out with translation tasks or anything else.
