• Abortion Policy API nearly all the code, some of the project management
• Effective Altruism Global San Francisco coordinating the volunteers
• iGEM Competition
  • Making websites and answering questions about responsible science with the Human Practices Committee
  • Lurking on e-mail chains about risk assessment for synthetic biology with the Safety & Security Committee
  • Judging the competition (I even won an award for this! and looked like a real dork on camera as a result)
• Truly over-the-top theme parties (check out The Gothic Heist!)
