For those who I have not met, hello, my name is Alexander Jacocks, and I am a current member of the VCF Mid-Atlantic steering committee. I joined what was then called MARCH back in 2011, and was given a tour of the much-smaller museum by Evan Koblentz, one of our founders. I quickly met Jeff Brace, and Bill Degnan, at the first event that I attended. Joining VCF was a watershed moment for me, since I had not been previously aware that many other people were interested in computer history, or the collecting of vintage equipment. Meeting the other members immediate expanded the number of folks that I count as friends, and greatly expanded my knowledge of the work going on with the preservation of our shared computing history. The things that I am most passionate about, and have worked the hardest to accomplish, while being a member of the steering committee include: 1) expansion of the hobby, history and profession of computing to include those often left out, including women, and people of color. 2) expansion of the ranks of VCF to people who have been previously unaware of us through community outreach and public speaking 3) outreach to other computing museums, both locally, and further afield 4) support of the Vintage Computer Forums as an administrator for VCF Thanks very much! - Alex Jacocks
