Webmaster

Why would you be a good choice for the Syrinx board?

I am interested in the future of Syrinx and the association activity I have heard from friends. I also got inspired to affect Syrinx and its actions while I worked together with the board as a tutor. I would be a good fir for webmaster because i update the websites of my workplace and have experience regarding this.
