Hi, I'm Katie. By day—and sometimes by night—I help operate a spacecraft called New Horizons. My background is in computer science, and I've written some of the software running on New Horizons and on MESSENGER. Outside of work I enjoy sea kayaking, sewing and embroidery, using Linux, learning Japanese language and tea ceremony, reading, hobby electronics projects, nature... all kinds of stuff. I'm involved in DorkbotDC, and I coordinate a DC-area chapter of LinuxChix. Readers of this page may be particularly interested in my tech projects page. Since I live out in the Maryland suburbs, I probably won't be physically present at HacDC often. Feel free to e-mail me.

HacDC Projects

• Smart Clothing

Wiki to-do

• consolidate Inventory and Stuff
• Inventory probably shouldn't include Skills
• Wishlist and Procurement (not to mention Inventory) look like they need to be updated
• considering installing Extension:ReCAPTCHA
• look into creating templates for things like meeting agendas and minutes
• add to http://hackerspaces.org/wiki/HacDC

Web Site to-do

• update the static content (or just point it to the wiki)

Mailing Lists to-do

• check to see that each list (including project ones) has an admin to take care of pending requests
