-Name you would like to go by: My name is Alexandria (surprisingly yes, named after the city in Egypt), though I most commonly go by Alex or Lexi. Other names people know me by are Keeper, jackalibis , and Sab Saiti. I’ll answer to just about anything (including 'Hey You' but I see that at least one other person is already going by that here, so that might get confusing. XD ).
-Present path or tradition: ‘of Kemetic persuasion’ is what I’m claiming now; there’s no set ‘flavour’ that really works to describe how things work for me - I've kinda marched to my own marching band since day one ;)
-Interests: writing, reading, photography, blogging, web design, music (as in actually performing it myself, in addition to just listening to it), ancient history, languages, and much more… I could go on forever about what I'm interested in
-Age (not mandatory): I have lived for a quarter of a century (let’s see who among you is good with fractions and percentages *snerk*)
-Brief Bio: I discovered spirituality outside of Christianity as I was raised within Southern Baptist churches when I was only eight. My family is a melting pot of culture, including when it comes to religion, and so it wasn’t long before I left what just didn’t work for me to find my own thing. My story of finding my religion is long and somewhat odd, and sometimes I wonder if people would really even believe half of it if I told them the whole of it. But, in the end, I found the Neteru – or perhaps they reminded me of them – and my life took on a whole new level of meaning whenever I was thirteen. I’ve served as their priest for the last eight years (yes, priest – they don’t call me their priestess, so I don’t call myself that either), and served the Kemetic community as founder and administrator of an online community forum called 'Children of Kemet' for at least five of those years before I finally had to simply close the site due to personal reasons.
