Mr. Endo is really Nathan Anderson from Syracuse, New York. I started editing Wikipedia in the Spring of 2004, but it was only in May of 2005 that I really got into it. Now I'm hooked! My interests in Wikipedia include the U.S. National Park System, as my life goal is to visit all of the NPS areas. I am a member of Wikipedia:WikiProject Protected Areas, and it is the basis for why I'm interested in Wikipedia.

I chose my on-line username, Mrendo, many years ago when I started mountain biking and was performing an endo at least twice a week. (I'm much better now.)
