My name is Eric (He/Him). Off Wikipedia, I'm a New Yorker and I'm an English language tutor. My main hobbies are cycling, learning languages, swimming, running, and editing Wikipedia.

I mainly edit articles on technology, transportation, and politics. I've made over 1500 edits since 2015, passing my 500th edit in October 2020. I'm always learning and I have so much to learn about Wikipedia. So far, most of my work is removing vandalism, updating information, and enforcing Wikipedia's policies. I would like to create more articles, as I have little experience in that field. Of course, if I make mistakes, please do let me know, I'm always ready to learn.

I believe in kindness, courtesy, and courage. And I'm always trying to leave the world a little better than I found it, one step (and one edit) at a time. I believe that the world is better when everyone gets on board so everyone can collaborate and build consensus. And that's what I love about Wikipedia. As messy and imperfect as things can get, we're all people coming together to build an encyclopedia representing the sum of human knowledge. It's remarkable.

What I'm Working On

This list is NOT up to date. My main editing strategy as of late is to catch errors as I'm reading and provide updates to software articles as they're released.

Suggestions or comments on what I should work on? Head over to my talk page and let me know!
