I have two strong motivations in life, a deep and abiding desire to learn more about the world from a philosophical, historical, scientific, and experiental perspective, and to, to the best of my ability, communicate what I learn to others.
I graduated with a bachelors degree in Political Science, and a minor in Philosophy, was best friends with an International Business student who recieved a minor in Japanese, a Molecular Biologist who was an ardent conservative Catholic, and a former Army Infantry Officer with a Ph.D in Literary Theory. Needless to say, conversation was never dull, and with my own reading spanning from Systems Theory to Evolutionary Biology to the viability of manufacturing certain alloys in space, I mixed things up myself.
Once I graduated, I worked as a tutor independently, focusing on Critical Reading, Algebra, and Study-Skills and Organization, and now am an English Teacher in the Czech Republic.
