EDUCATION AND TRAINING

​I’m fascinated with the study of human beings from the inside out AND the outside in. I’ve made human development, psychology, somatics, and astrology my main vocation. Through the course my studies, I’ve been interested in pursuing these questions:  What are humans for? What is a body? Why are we here? What is the self?
