To be honest, I'm not a big

To be honest, I'm not a big fan of labels but I believe it's important that youth and young adults are called what they want to be called.

I chose "adult" but I haven't actually called myself that for very long. Before switching to Drupal full-time, I did a lot of work organizing events for youth and young adults. I was eventually elected to a committee that ran conferences and workshops and I was an "Adult-at-large" for a few years.

Only then did I realize it: if I was an adult in the eyes of the young people I spent time with, I really was an adult.
