User:Karmajinpa

Karmajinpa is my Buddhist refuge name. It means generosity in action.

I live in Eau Claire, Wisconsin a college town of about 68,000 people.

I have a diverse background:
 * Show/breeding kennel manager
 * Daily newspaper stringer
 * SE WI editor for statewide newspaper
 * PR account executive
 * Advertising/PR group supervisor
 * Registered nurse
 * Nurse Practitioner

In 2006 I became ill with what was ultimately determined to be myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME). I had to stop working in 2008 and was determined to be disabled in 2009. Currently, I'm helping to edit MEpedia for people with ME.
