Winifred Olliff Grants Administrator, Wikimedia Foundation

About me My professional background is in technology and development and I have been working in the nonprofit sector for about five years, though I am educated as a classical musician and music theorist. I speak fluent Albanian, am a native English speaker, and can get by in a number of other European languages with limited fluency. I've lived in California (United States), Illinois (United States), Albania, and Iceland and coordinated volunteer projects in all of those locations. I work here at the foundation because I love working on wikis (and anything with categories) and because I love working with volunteers. At WMF, I get to do these two things every single day! You can see from the photo here that I'm female, though I'm also known as Mr. Winifred or Mr. Wikifred to some since I mostly communicate by Email and onwiki and have only recently posted my photo up here on Meta to clarify this point. Even though I've been editing wikis for some time, I still forget to log in sometimes, but User:Ijon is coaching me.

My work I'm Winifred Olliff, Grants Administrator at Wikimedia Foundation. I work on the WMF Grants Program and the Wikimedia Participation Support Program, and I also support the work of the Funds Dissemination Committee. Disclaimer: Although I work for the Wikimedia Foundation, contributions under this account do not necessarily represent the actions or views of the Foundation unless expressly stated otherwise. For example, edits to articles or uploads of other media are done in my individual, personal capacity unless otherwise stated.
