I've been online since the early 1980's, starting with BBS' and BITNET before the Internet became a thing. I am currently employed by the Internet Society (ISOC) as Senior Director, Online Trust and Safety, working on a project to help promote resources that help people have a safe and secure experience online. I also engage with the broader Internet technical community, and continue to monitor low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites for Internet access (ex. Starlink, OneWeb). (NOTE: I do not edit the Internet Society's article on Wikipedia due to WP:COI.)

Previous employers: Voxeo, Mitel, Linuxcare, Linux_Professional_Institute

I am on multiple social networks using a variation of "danyork" or "danyork324".
