My early contributions to Node.js were adding the [fs.readdirSync](https://github.com/nodejs/node/commit/05d6da6c4af25fc417902ad1bbae9198e58ff37a) method, [adding chmod support](https://github.com/nodejs/node/commit/bcc032e43aac86d71739150009d8d75b5a9de26f), then implementing the [upgrade event](https://github.com/nodejs/node/commit/f990f24ad36ddaff3c378531d15ea5c052467d41) that enabled implementing Websockets in Node.js, I kept contributing regularly and learned a lot from the early community. The largest change I made to Node.js was splitting up the [documentation into multiple files and pages](https://github.com/nodejs/node/commit/e190c9616ed0b05eb66e1ae6681a8bb4a5f5f3e5), this lifted me up to be within the top ten contributors to the project due to the sheer number of lines of code changed.

That led to me receiving a job offer just as I was finishing high school in 2010, which took me to San Francisco for a bit, where I finally met mikeal, isaacs, ry, rauchg, and polotek in person. These were people I'd previously only known from IRC chats, hence using their handles, or from the node.js podcast I hosted in 2010 with Mikeal Rogers (it was called The Noded, I have no idea if it's still online somewhere).

I didn't realise I was queer until much later in life, after I'd moved to London. I was 24 going on 25, and had been going through some things. I started with just the question of "are men's and women's clothes really that different?", it was an odd question for someone who at the time still considered themselves straight and cisgender, but it was something I explored on my own and it was really just me trying to give myself permission to try dressing differently. I the time, I did not recognize myself in the mirror, and I needed to try something. I came out as genderqueer on New Years Eve of 2014/2015.
