Hello Mastadon. Nice to be here with you!

Recently retired Lib Tech. Best stuff I worked on in the 28 years at the library was web design, dockerizing, setting up and running a digital repo with community contributed content, video + audio recording + editing, and VR.

Enjoying retired life living on an island in the Pacific with my partner, #knitting, #sewing, #gardening, #nature, #hiking, #birding, #photography and #soundscapes.

Also interested in #weaving #basketry #sustainableliving (and more)
