Welcome to Wikipedia, the Last Best Place on the Internet

Welcome to my user page. I am a teacher who lives in Lake County, Illinois, USA. I first edited Wikipedia sometime around March 2004. A lot has changed since then. For the last few years, much of my editing has focused on maintaining the Illinois Portal.
