Who Is The Lightkeeper?

Let me introduce myself, I am Edward Volkl, your friendly “lightkeeper” in the world of BDSM. My journey started with a chance encounter with a late-night bookstore during a college taco quest that sparked a lifelong passion for the lifestyle and a commitment to self-improvement. Now, I share my experiences and knowledge through blogging, podcasting, and social media.

Beyond the kinktastic realm, I am a coffee-fueled tech professional by day, an avid skier, an explorer of lighthouses, as well as a history and boat nerd.
