{{Image|Bitstrip avatar ChristineBushMV 2014.png|left|120px|I'm here to help.}} I'm an independent writer and researcher living in Mountain View, California. I have a B.A. in Liberal Arts with a focus in Philosophy and Cognitive Science. I spent one year in graduate school at San Jose State University where I studied Geography and History. I have training and work experience in geographic information systems and continue to enjoy creating maps for various projects using open source GIS tools. I have over 15 years of experience as a web developer. I am researching and writing a book about epistemology and working on a [http://bumbleapps.com botanically-related app]. I have a blog at: [http://ideaspeak.us ideaspeak].


I have been awarded two "barnstars" for my contributions to Wikipedia. I am the primary contributor to the article on "Encyclopedic knowledge" and a major contributor to the article on "Open educational resources." I find the online culture at Wikipedia to be toxic. I hope to contribute original maps and articles relating postcolonial studies and postmodernism to CZ. I also want to help [[CZ:Basic_Article_List|fill in the gaps]].
I support Citizendium financially and want to see it grow and thrive.
=== June 2014 Election ===
I am excited to have been given a chance to serve a one-year term on the '''Citizendium Council''' as an ''Author Representative''. It was eye-opening, however, to discover just how few of us actually participated in this election. We have work to do.
During my first term, I intend to work to increase participation on CZ and to encourage more contributors to vote next year. I also want new users to feel welcome to contact me directly with any questions about writing articles. I make no claim to having all the answers, only to having the right experience to find them for you.
I'll have a page in my User space dedicated to my  work in this capacity up soon. You should still find my 2014 Election Statement [[User:Christine_Bush/June2014-ElectionStatement|here]].
