About the site
This site is operated by Blake Feldman in his personal capacity. He created this site in Dec. 2017 because he is trying to learn ways to better use technology to advance his work - whether that’s by workflow automation, creating better platforms for collaboration, or finding ways to reach more people in a more impactful way. Because he's attempting to learn code in his spare time, the projects page is a work in progress.
It is likely that the structure and content of the site will evolve, but for now, the site provides Blake's biographical information in both the format of a resumé and a narrative. For links to selected media quoting or mentioning Blake and some of his op-eds, see the publications page.
