Hello from Seattle! I'm Yuriy :)

Hey folks!
I'm one of the volunteer engineers working on Vegan Bootcamp as of just a week or two ago. A little about me...
I'm 32 and live in the quietest corner of Seattle surrounded by old hippies with crazy vegetable gardens. I've been vegetarian for 8 years and vegan for about 3, mostly for the animals.
I hope to one day have a small animal sanctuary on one of the islands in the Puget Sound, or perhaps in the north of Sweden. Kind of torn between the two. You can probably guess what I like from that -- animals, quiet, cool climates, and lots of pine trees
For now I divide up time between coding and landscape photography. I've worked at a bunch of tech startups before, but it was all for profit and I now want to use my coding skills for something that actually has a positive impact.
Other random fun facts: I love hiking and backpacking. I often play Hearthstone to wind down from the work-day, but when I had more time I played WoW and all kinds of RPGs. Before becoming an engineer I was in a metal band.
If you have any suggestions/feedback or just anything else in general, don't hesitate to reach out! I look forward to being part of this community
