Board Directors
Elizabeth Wiltshire (Vice President) (she/her) first discovered fandom in early high school through the Bits of Ivory Pride & Prejudice archive. While she has never written a fanwork herself, she did learn HTML to create a naïve yet heartfelt Buffy/Angel Geocities webpage, which has long since been lost to the sands of time. Elizabeth has been volunteering for the OTW as a tag wrangler since 2022, and was a chair of the Board Assistant Team (BAT) from its founding in 2023 until her election to the Board of Directors in 2025. When not involved in OTW work, she is a commercial manager in the public sector, plays the bassoon and contrabassoon, and enjoys swimming, hiking, camping, and playing too many video games. Between January and June 2025 she read 5,486,061 words of fanfic.
Harlan Lieberman-Berg (Vice President) (he/him) has been in the fandom community since he first stumbled on a Lord of the Rings slashfic — mostly as a reader and obsessive packrat, but occasionally as a fanbinder. He joined OTW to work as a tech volunteer for the Open Doors project in 2018 and has worked there (except for a one year hiatus) since. In early 2024, he was appointed as the Cybersecurity Delegate to the Board (CSD) and performed an audit on the security of the OTW, delivering the report to the Board in May 2025.
Outside of OTW, Harlan works as a consultant helping federal, state, and local governments make technology actually work for its users and for the public. He has worked in information security and software engineering for over two decades, including as a C-level executive and as a senior security architect. He is also a contributor to the free software and open source community, currently serving as a Debian Developer.
Jennifer Howard (they/them) has been in fandom as long as they can remember, from writing meta about Big Bad Beetleborgs for elementary school assignments, to online Buffy and Harry Potter roleplay in middle school, to making very mediocre Alias Livejournal icons in high school. They discovered AO3 in 2014 after a dear internet friend finally got them to watch Supernatural and they’ve been voraciously reading there (and very occasionally writing) ever since. Jennifer joined the OTW as a Tag Wrangler in 2021 and became a Tag Wrangling Supervisor in 2024.
In their professional life, Jennifer has spent the last few years specializing in system and process documentation and training. They also have experience working for an arts nonprofit and have worked in both sales and program management in manufacturing. In their free time they sing as a soprano in their local LGBTQ choir and are learning to play the banjo.
Rachel Linton (President) (she/her) has been writing fanfiction for more than a decade. She wears a number of hats in the Organization for Transformative Works as a Tag Wrangler and Wrangling Supervisor, and Policy & Abuse Committee member. Off the internet, she’s a lawyer, D&D player, and metaphorical hat collector.
Rebecca C Moritz (she/her) has been active in fandom since the conception of Sold to One Direction, though she has written stories for as long as she has been able to. Whilst many of her earliest fanworks have been lost to time, she occasionally still posts fanfiction whenever inspiration strikes. She joined the Organisation for Transformative Works as a Fanlore Social Media and Outreach Volunteer in 2025, transitioning into a Chair Track Volunteer role that same year, before becoming a Fanlore Co-Chair in February 2026. She previously volunteered for a local children’s nonprofit. Rebecca describes herself as a “bilingual mess”; she’s fluent in both English and German, yet sometimes can’t remember words in either language. In addition, she also speaks French, Spanish and some Korean. Outside of the OTW, she works in marketing and follows various academic pursuits, including marketing research, with the ambition to pursue a PhD. She completed her Master’s in Management in 2026, with her thesis focusing on one of her current fandoms. In her spare time, she enjoys baking too much sourdough, reading, and playing story-heavy RPGs.
Theodore Bloyd (Secretary) (he/him) has been reading and writing creatively since childhood, with a love for science fiction and fantasy supported by his parents and (even more voracious) brother. One Piece as a child, Percy Jackson as a teen, and Red Rising as an adult have kept him attached to fandom, without even mentioning the millions of words of fanfic read—peaking at 25 million words in a single year. Beyond reading, he spends much of his time supporting the speedrunning side of fandom via tournaments and marathons. His favorite wrangling activity is researching obscure tags; his second favorite is finding the perfect canonical to syn to. Outside of online volunteer work, he previously worked as a camp counselor for LGBTQ+ youth and experiences Alternate Universe – Coffee Shop on the daily for a living wage.
