Mark Olson Email & Phone Number

I am a clerical worker, but for the past three years I have dedicated much of my free time to software development. I am an active contributor to the Notepad++ community. Currently I would be most interested in a non-technical clerical role with an small organization open to someone who could, during his down time, provide insight on how to make better use of technology to streamline processes.Since mid-2023, I have worked in part-time roles provided by Richmond Area Multi-Services (RAMS). I have enjoyed doing hands-on work in these roles, and it can provide a welcome respite from programming work. I have also done part-time data analysis work for Stop Crime SF, a San Francisco nonprofit seeking to inform voters about the track records of San Francisco Superior Court judges running for re-election. In this role, I used Google Sheets and Google Drive to help organize large amounts of data collected by other members of the organization.As an open source developer, I have developed the JsonTools plugin in C#, a versatile Notepad++ plugin for working with JSON described below in my Projects section. I have made pull requests that have been merged into Notepad++ and Python's numpy library. See my GitHub for more information: https://github.com/molsonkiko.In a past life, I earned a master’s degree in chemistry. After working in chemistry, I realized it was not my calling. I rediscovered my love for coding and I have dedicated myself to it for years. I have become very proficient with Python and C# in this time, but I have struggled to find a coding job. I contribute to open source because I am most enthusiastic about projects where I see usefulness in the community.
