Alexander Harker is an archaeologist and cultural resource management field technician based in Portland with 13 years of multidisciplinary experience combining hands-on excavation, artifact analysis, and surveying with a graduate certification in Geographic Information Science and Cartography. He brings practical field expertise—surveying, testing, data recovery, mapping—and is proficient with ESRI tools, Python, PostGIS/PostgreSQL and open-source GIS, enabling tight integration of spatial analysis into CRM projects. Trained at the University of Florida and immersive field school experience at Arizona State’s Rock Art Ranch, he excels under long hours and strenuous conditions while maintaining meticulous documentation standards. Unusually for a field archaeologist, he also maintains active technical contributions to C++ audio/plugin projects on GitHub, reflecting strong low-level programming and graphics/backend skills that inform his systematic, tool-oriented approach to archaeological data workflows.

Contributions summary:Alexander's commits primarily focus on enhancing the `IPlug` framework, specifically its interaction with audio parameters and internal structures. They added functionality to retrieve linked `IParam` objects, addressed issues in container and struct files, and implemented improvements for IBitmap. The user also addressed const correctness and fixed an issue with parameter serialization/deserialization. These changes suggest a focus on improving the core functionality and stability of the audio plugin framework.
