I'm fairly new to working on Wikipedia and have mainly edited entries for grammar and added some references. I also submitted the stub for the Nonmotorized Transportation Pilot Program on March 8, 2007. I have a Ph.D. in English Literature from Princeton University, with a special interest in 20th century British and American literature. That said, I have wide-ranging interests and currently support myself as a test developer, which allows me to read widely in many subjects. I also contributed over 100 articles to West Publishing's Encyclopedia of American Law, so I have experience with writing professionally for encyclopedias. I have been volunteering as an advocate to increase use of nonmotorized or active transportation such as walking and biking.
