Hello, welcome to my user page. I primarily do countervandalism work and new page patrol, including reviewing Articles for Creation submissions. My username is representative of the fact that large amounts of my work here are related to cleaning up/removing the "trash" that people insert (or attempt to insert) into Wikipedia for unknown reasons. This is my second account on Wikipedia, with my previous account being inactive since 2017 and subsequently vanished. This account is a clean start. I attempted to do some content work under my previous account, but just found that I wasn't any good at it. Therefore I have decided to dedicate my efforts to countervandalism and new page patrol work with this account.

I am originally from Indianapolis, Indiana but I currently reside in Boston, Massachusetts. I do travel somewhat frequently for work, and most of my travel is done via Amtrak, which operates three different routes (as well as one luxury high-speed route) from Boston to various other destinations in the country. Please note that I may be inactive for multiple consecutive days while traveling as Internet connectivity on board Amtrak is hit-or-miss and I don't like trying to edit on my phone (the screen is too small). Feel free to leave a message on my talk page and I will respond as soon as possible. You can also email me for private matters, but please only do this if the content is not suitable for public discussion. Also please note that messages on my talk page will likely receive a faster response than emails.
