Here’s my #introduction / #introductions post (updated 5/25/24):
Hi! I’m Michael, but can frequently be found online as “djwudi”.
Grew up in #Alaska, now exist just south of #Seattle most of the time.
Currently work in #HigherEducation #a11y #accessibility as the #AccessibleTechnology Program Manager at Highline College.
I’m a #ScienceFiction / #SciFi fan. #StarTrek is my home fandom, and I volunteer for 
@norwescon, a local regional fan-run con, and for 
@SeattleWorldcon2025 #SeattleWorldcon2025.
I read a lot of SF #books. Trek novels are my go-to “comfort food”. I’m slowly working my way through all the #HugoAward Best Novel winners, and every year read all of the nominees for the #PhilipKDickAward before the annual award ceremony at Norwescon.
Speaking of the Philip K. Dick Award and #Norwescon, as of #nwc45 (2023), I am the award ceremony coordinator for Norwescon. This means I oversee the award ceremony and work with nominated authors and their agents as we invite them to attend the ceremony.
I’m one of the many Seattleites who “used to be a #DJ”. For me, it was about a decade in #Anchorage in the late ‘90s/early ‘00s, primarily at The Lost Abbey and Gig’s Music Theatre. Focused on alternative genres: goth/industrial/synth pop/ebm/techno/etc. These days I occasionally pop up on Twitch, and semi-regularly DJ the Thursday night dance at Norwescon.
Though recently more on the fringes, I try to be part of the #SeaGoth (Seattle #goth / #gothic) community whenever possible. I used to be a regular at The Vogue (on 12th), and these days try to get out to the Mercury once every month or two.
#Apple #macOS / #iOS user by choice, Windows user if paid.
Oh, and: 51, white, cis, male, statistically straight, healthy, white-collar employed, not rich but comfortably not poor, married, homeowner, neurotypical (as far as I know). In other words, living with a lot of #privilege that I try to be aware of and use for good.
