About Me

Curiosity drives me.

I have a Ph.D. in Educational Psychology, and academia is my main professional path. I conduct research, teach Educational Psychology at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and work with research grants and sponsored projects.

My research explores how people learn, make meaning, develop agency, and connect knowledge with experience, identity, culture, and action. I am especially interested in learning that happens through participation, creativity, multimodality, and the spaces beyond traditional classrooms.

Alongside academic work, I enjoy writing books and zines, making art, and exploring the philosophies that shape how I understand learning, creativity, and everyday life.

I am also deeply curious about the esotericism, especially Tarot. I approach these systems pragmatically, with an interest in psychology, symbolism, semiotics, belief, and the ways people use symbolic tools to interpret their lives. 

Across all of this, I am interested in the relationship between mind, body, emotion, culture, and meaning, and in what happens when we stay curious about how they move together.

That’s where I am for now. Feel free to explore the site, and if you see me around, give me a pinch so I know I’m not dreaming. I haven’t been pinched in a dream yet!

Thank you for being here.
