Language: English is my native language. I have a basic understanding of ASL. 这个用户是能够有助于满足于基本 水平的 中国人。 この利用者は少しだけ日本語を話すことができます。 Estoy aprendiendo español. Sto imparando l’italiano. Ako ay pag-aaral ng Tagalog. Ich lerne Deutsch zu sprechen.

IRC: I might already be online as mchua on IRC (irc.freenode.net and irc.oftc.net). If I’m not flagged as mchua|away or similar, feel free to ping; you should get pretty fast response rates.

Email: [my-first-name] at [my-first-name] [my-last-name] dot com

Email is my preferred means of communication. I usually respond within 48 hours. If you haven’t heard back from me by that time, feel free to resend your message; I get a lot of email, and sometimes things get snagged by spam filters or otherwise sucked into mysterious black holes.

Phone: If that’s not an option and it’s really urgent, text (+1) 847.970.8484 and let me know why I should call you back. The “text” part is important; I have a hearing loss and can’t for the life of me understand voicemail messages, so I don’t have voicemail.

Shipping stuff/Visiting: I travel frequently and publish my upcoming trips. Technically, I live with my family in the Boston area, near the Chestnut Hill T stop on the MBTA green (D) line, and am thus UTC -5 by default. However, it’s rare that I sleep more than 10 consecutive nights in the same bed, so you’ll want to check that upcoming-trips list to see when I’ll be in town.
