I love the human brain and I love humans in general. My whole purpose is to help you harness the unimaginable impressive power of the greatest computer the universe has ever known: Your brain.

Why do I care about this stuff?

My work is informed by my own journey of self-discovery, religious deconstruction, neuroscience and psychology education, and my diagnosis of ADHD, which has shaped my understanding of how our brains and beliefs influence our lives.

I’ve spent the last decade and a half deconstructing my view of the world, questioning where my opinions and assumptions came from, and purposefully exposing myself to ideas and perspectives that I couldn’t have had on my own.

And I want to help others do the same. 

It took a mixture of good and bad luck, good and bad decisions, exposure to people unlike me, some exceedingly patient professors, and a lot of sleepless nights to expand my worldview enough to change.

I count myself lucky that I was able to approach my own inaccurate beliefs with something akin to curiosity rather than judgment. And I’ve followed that curiosity to study neuroscience in Timothy Bartness’ research lab at Georgia State University, to grow the second largest CrossFit events in the world, to lead engineering teams who put their products on Mars, and study graduate level psychology at Harvard.

After all of my research, I’ve learned that everyone is wrong about something - and everyone can learn to be wrong better.

This shift takes us from a place of judgment and restriction to curiosity and openness. It allows us to have better relationships with ourselves, our loved ones, and the world at large.

I’m not mad, I’m disappointed. Don’t remember what it’s about? Well, I use science, history, and storytelling to help you understand the human experience, and learn how to prioritize people over everything.
