I am a software engineer in the Des Moines, Iowa area.

I enjoy learning about local species identification, horticulture, and photography. I especially like exploring tiny things. It's been a lot of fun to discover tiny insects, spiders, fungi, and other organisms that I've been surrounded by but haven't really paid close attention to before. I am also into plants, especially succulents and other desert plants.

Projects:

• I maintain Pyinaturalist, a python iNaturalist API client: https://github.com/pyinat/pyinaturalist
• I also work on Naturtag, a tool to tag and organize photo collections using iNaturalist taxonomy data (still very early in development): https://github.com/pyinat/naturtag
• I post some of my favorite observation photos on Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/jcook83/
• I grow and propagate cacti, Haworthia, and other lovable weirdo plants in a small indoor garden
