## Tait Hoyem

Hello, Alice

This will be short and sweet.

Copying and explaining information in accessible ways is something I have been doing my entire life---sometimes without realizing it.
As a partially-sighted student,
I know what information makes sense without visuals and what information will be completely meaningless without additional context or description.

I also have some background in computer science.
This allows me to transcribe and explain only what is important.
Somebody without this background may not know when a number being shown on screen is important or when it is genuinely meaningless.
I also do not need to go back and forth to the text I am copying from to be one-hundered percent sure I have the right paranthasies, brackets, less-than signs, et cetera.
All these patterns make sense to me when I read them.

Although I would prefer to work with computer science students,
I am willing to be used more broadly if that is of use to you.

Thank you for your consideration,
