I'm Peter Benjamin Meyer. My regular user page is on the English Wikipedia. For Wikimedia purposes I can be reached at peter.meyer@wikidc.org.
I'm a director and officer of this chapter. I'm focusing on chapter business of two kinds (a) being treasurer and (b) participating in and hosting edit-a-thons.
