The first thing you may have noticed in my profile is the image of Lord Narasimadev’s image. This is actually a tattoo that I have as a reminder and for protection. I believe in using my body as a reminder of Krishna's impact in my life. I wear the Maha Mantra on my forearms so that every time I look down, I am reminded of the transcendental joy it brings to my life.

Currently I reside in Seattle, WA and have only recently begun to connect with the temple and ISKCON after an extended absence. As a living tribute to this faith, I never stopped chanting or driving down the road with a kirtan blasting from my car windows (which definitely can get some looks at a stoplight). As I'm getting older and life starts to change, I realize the need to re-associate and develop relationships with devotees.

I've been in and around ISKCON all of my adult life and even a few years before as a teenager. I started out in St. Louis (around the mid 80s), then off to San Francisco (Carl Street and Berkeley), San Diego for many years where I made one last (hopefully) move and ended up here in Seattle.

I may desire spiritual growth, but I do have a sense of humor in life.
