#introduction (re-posting)
Hello, world! I'm a freelance consultant working to support the #digitalidentity and #internetstandards fields. I'm not an architect or developer; I don't design the standards. I help working groups of smart people figure out what to do and offer whatever kind of support is needed for the brilliant people who write the specifications to get it done.
I'm based on an island outside of Seattle, with my sweetheart and two Very Fuzzy kitties.

I’ve been thinking a lot about how platforms trap users with permanent usernames. Reddit is one of the worst examples — once you choose a name, you can never reset it, recycle it, or fully delete it. That kind of permanence creates anxiety and makes people feel stuck. Digital identity shouldn’t be irreversible. We need platforms that let users change or erase their identity when they need to.
