Most of my articles will be related to Hinduism and Buddhism, as these are the traditions I have studied most extensively. I am also interested in mystical traditions such as yoga and meditation, or the contemplative forms of western mysticism. I have also traveled to India on several occasions to visit prominent religious sites, learn languages, and go trekking.
I have an MA in Asian Religions from the University of Iowa. I teach college courses in philosophy and world religions through the online divisions of Empire State College and the University of Maryland University College.
In addition to traveling, I am also an unabashed science fan. I love reading science fiction and nonfiction and I am an amateur astronomer. With the freedom that online teaching has given me, I will be completing a degree in physics this coming year through the State University of New York at Buffalo.
