I'm a chemist with a research interest in nanotechnology. I've been editing Misplaced Pages since Fall 2006, and was reading it for about two years before that. Most of my work is related to articles on nanotechnology, biomolecular structure, and related science topics, as well as science policy and budgetary policy, and local landmarks, especially bridges. As of January 2017, I am a Wikipedian-in-Residence for the U.S. National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, and my edits for that position are made under a separate account.

My time is split between creating and expanding new articles, copyediting existing articles for flow and clarity of organization, and performing splits of long articles and merges of articles that have overlapping subject matter. I'm a big fan of navboxes as a tool to improve readers' understanding of how articles relate to each other within a broader context.

Main pages: /Accomplishments, /Gallery, and /Navboxes

I have created or overhauled a good number of articles; the above links contain a list of the articles I have worked extensively on, as well as a gallery of the images I have uploaded. I have also made a number of navboxes, mainly for the various subfields of nanotechnology, to improve article flow and attract more edits to these articles.

The boxes below feature changing samples from my FA, GA, and DYK credits.

Selected quality article

A Holliday junction is a branched nucleic acid structure containing four double-stranded arms joined together. They may adopt one of several conformations depending on buffer salt concentrations and the identity of the nucleobases closest to the junction. The structure is named after the molecular biologist Robin Holliday, who proposed its existence in 1964. In biology, Holliday junctions are a key intermediate in multiple types of genetic recombination as well as double-strand break repair. These junctions usually have a symmetrical sequence and are thus mobile, meaning that the four individual may slide though the junction. Additionally, four-arm junctions similar to Holliday junctions appear in some functional RNA molecules. Immobile Holliday junctions, with asymmetrical sequences that lock the strands in a specific position, were artificially created by scientists to study their structure. These junctions also later found use as basic structural building blocks in DNA nanotechnology, where multiple Holliday junctions can be combined into specific designed geometries that provide molecules with a high degree of structural rigidity.

... that there wasn't enough water in Oceanside to build more than half of the E. F. Barrett Power Station (pictured)?
... that Robert Curl, who won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for the discovery of buckminsterfullerene, ruined his mother's stove with nitric acid from his first chemistry set?
... that pharyngeal aspiration is a widely used method for studying the respiratory toxicity of carbon nanotubes?
... that postdoctoral researcher unions have successfully negotiated for a minimum salary, just cause protections for discipline or dismissal, and paid maternity leave?
... that at 5,593 pages, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 was the longest bill ever passed by the U.S. Congress, but members of both parties complained they had almost no time to read it?

... that the Butler mansion was built with parquette oak floors, elaborate frescos, wainscot paneling—and a fireproof wing to store the archives of the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey?
