<h2>Web Standards Specialist</h2>
<h2>W3C Team Contact for the <a href="http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/" title="W3C SVG Working Group">SVG</a>, <a href="http://www.w3.org/2008/webapps/" title="W3C WebApps Working Group">WebApps</a>, and <a href="http://www.w3.org/2010/webevents/" title="W3C Web Events Working Group">Web Events</a> Working Groups</h2>

<p>I'm a Web application developer with a passion for open Web standards, especially SVG.  Over the past decade, I've worked in various startups, and helped found and run a small consulting company specializing in SVG Web apps.  My mission at W3C is making it easier for people to make stunning Web content.  I joined the W3C Team in June 2007.  I edit specs, create and administer tests, chair and participate in teleconferences, read lots of technical and semi-technical stuff (specs, email, blogs, IRC logs), and try to find time to still code.</p>

<p>I also go out of my way to find new things that W3C should be doing, but isn't yet, and make that a reality.  If you are involved in something that needs W3C's attention, feel free to contact me... I can't make any guarantees, but I can try to connect you to the right people.</p>

<p>I live in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA.  I maintain a sporadic blog, called <a href="http://www.schepers.cc/" title="Reinventing Fire">Reinventing Fire</a>.  I hang out on IRC under the handle <em>"shepazu"</em>; this is the Japanese transcription of my surname, pronounced <em>"&#x0283;epaz"</em> (or, more humorously <em>"shepazoo"</em>).  You can follow me on Twitter with <a href="http://twitter.com/shepazu">@shepazu</a>, and I also tweet for the SVG Working Group as <a href="http://twitter.com/svgwg">@svgwg</a>, and for the Web Events WG as <a href="http://twitter.com/w3cwebevents">@w3cwebevents</a>.  You can contact me at <a href="mailto:schepers@w3.org"><img src="http://w3.org/Icons/envelope.gif" alt="email">schepers@w3.org</a></p>
