I prefer to be in the mountains, but usually I’m behind a computer. Senior Data Curator @Logos. I’m interested in post-classical Greek and the linguistic tools of the digital humanities.

I took the Author and Works section of LSJ, and made it into data. I don't know that it is that useful, but it was fun and simple. I generated a chart showing the number of Authors organized by Time Period, and one showing the number of Works organized by Time Period. LSJ is the Logos version.

It’s nice to have a weekend getaway that is actually just a local trail system. Bellingham is doing well in the 15 minute infrastructure dev.
