--- title: Community description: Various groups and activities that I participate in --- ## Logic Reading Group I co-founded the NY Captital Region Logic Reading Group. The idea here is to present papers within automated reasoning, logic-based artificial intelligence, and normative ethics. [See more](logic-group) ## ./UMWLUG I was the co-founder and vice president of UMW's Linux Users Group. I mainly brought interesting people to come and talk about Linux and open source.

This can include using the wayback machine, breaking a simple cryptosystem, as well as finding exploits in a sandboxed system. I was part of a committee of four people making problems for UMW's first CTF competition. If you're interested in this sort of thing and just starting out, one website that I found which is really cool is called [OverTheWire](https://overthewire.org/wargames/bandit/). ## Datakind In the summer of 2018, I attended the month Datakind events in DC. In it, I mostly performed data cleaning and verification for non-profit organizations in the area.
