I'm Kinu Panda, a Wikipedian from San Antonio, Texas. I've been editing the English Wikipedia since 2005 and have served as an administrator since 2007.

I have a B.A. in Economics from Yale University and a M.S. in Applied Statistics from the University of Texas at San Antonio, where I currently am pursuing a Ph.D. in Applied Statistics and am a lecturer.

My interests (both on- and off-wiki) include transportation, mathematics, atheism, beer, and dachshunds.

I plan on writing a lot more about myself once I have the time to think through it. In the meantime, feel free to peruse my collection of unsorted userboxes and other sundried items.

Oh, I've also accidentally blocked myself once.

Note: I have two doppelgänger accounts: User:KinuP (a pre-unified login artefact which will not be used for editing) and User:Kinu Panda (which I may use to edit from unsecure locations per WP:SOCKLEGIT). If any other account claims to be me, it's lying.

Current goals and efforts
