Venerable Ngawang Choekyi

Choekyi-la first came to Kadampa Center in 2003 and has been a huge fan ever since! She began as a Discovering Buddhism student, then as a Kadampa Board member and Basic Program student, and now as an ordained nun. Under Geshe Gelek's kind guidance, Choekyi-la lived in India in 2009-2010, took ordination with Khensur Rinpoche Jetsun Lobsang Delek, and received teachings from His Holiness the Dalai Lama and other wonderful masters. In 2018, she returned to India and took Getsulma vows from Khensur Rinpoche Jetsun Lobsang Delek.

Donna Seese

Donna started attending Kadampa Center in 1999, and knew she had found her spiritual home the first time she walked through the doors. Over the years she has found the Dharma to be of incredible benefit in living her daily life, raising her daughter in partnership with her husband, and helping her parents make the transition into death.
She has worked in a variety of roles at the Center and hopes her service as spiritual program coordinator will be of benefit to our teachers, our community, and all beings.
