I am a student of the [[universe]], a seeker of [[knowledge]], a lover of [[learning]].

In the real world, I am a [[residency|resident]] [[physician]] currently living in [[Minnesota]], which leaves me with little time.

On March 15, 2005, I [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Knowledge Seeker|became]] an [[Wikipedia:Administrator|administrator]]. To check up on what I've been doing with my administrative powers, see my [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=&user=Knowledge+Seeker&page= log] (note that rollbacks will appear under my [[Special:Contributions/Knowledge Seeker|contributions]] like my other edits). I take pride in my work and take care to follow Wikipedia policy. If you feel I have misused my adminstrative powers in some way, I would very much appreciate if you [[User talk:Knowledge Seeker|let me know]].
