Biography
I've been doing my genealogy since I was in junior high school. I picked it up from my mother, my aunt, and my great-uncle.
I've done some work on my own, and when I have time, try to flesh out my tree.
I am a metadata librarian in Michigan. Part of my job is to flesh out identities for persons and organizations, including their name changes, so I like to think I am doing corporate level genealogies :-) This is called "identity management" or "name authority" work.

Congratulations on certifying to work on pre-1700 profiles! It’s very important to read and understand the Pre-1700 Profiles page. These profiles for deep ancestors are shared by many, and collaborating on them works best if we all follow the guidelines in the certification quiz.
Primary sources should always be added to pre-1700 profiles at the time they are created. If you don't have a source for a pre-1700 profile, it would be best to ask for help in the G2G forum before creating the profile.
