Hi everyone, My apologies as I've only been on this mailing list for a few days and have already jumped into the conversation without introducing myself!
I've been involved in my local (Toronto, ON, Canada) OpenStreetMap community for a number of years. Participating has brought together my interests in GIS as well as community development. By day I conduct research and program evaluations in the health services field with a focus on health informatics. I have a fairly good technical and applied background in web-based initiatives and their application in health, particularly in relation to patient engagement via computer-mediated communication. Before attending graduate school I worked in the HIV/AIDS community here in Toronto. Over the years I've been on several committees, boards and am a founding member of Patients Canada. I'm interested in shifting my research to be more GIS focused. To support this I'm currently studying GIS at Ryerson University. In closing I hope to learn more about HOT and support its activities in any way possible. Best wishes, Laura p.s. Hello Heather Leson!
