Staff turnover is huge problem. Accidental techie has institutional knowledge, leaves; no one else can operate things @meganvillwock #pdxt4g
Accidental techies tend to come from backgrounds underrepresented in the tech sector. But they are often unrecognized @meganvillwock #pdxt4g
"Accidental" techies are a "temporary" workaround to constrained nonprofits that turn into full-time work. @meganvillwock #pdxt4g
