Searching for a better understanding of human behavior and the mind I have embarked on a wonderful journey. Combining the fields of psychology and anthropology has led to many startling revelations. Combining the influences of Bronfenbrenner, Boaz, Mead, with Rogerian and Buddhist perspectives allowed for the culmination of a specialized holistic view when assessing the needs of cultures and communities. Education is key to finding the path to change and a brighter tomorrow. Recently, the combination of my ecclectic background lead to the creation of a non-profit agency to aid in the eductional and economic advanceent for the people of Uganda. The end of generational poverty comes in the form of education andsustainable economic practices.Viewing the world as a collective the need for a paradiagm change is apparent. Society is at a crossroads and working together may be our best chance to end unethical and immoral practices.

The past few yearsof research have followed some interesting paths with both psychology and anthropology. Following my anthropological interests lead to researching Native American language with the Comanche, visited a Wiccan coven for explanation of ritual and psychological influence, created and researched a material cuture with chimpanzees, and the origins of homosapiens with skeletal research. The psychology side influenced a personal mission to create a symptom specifc assessment creation for Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) and extensive research in the origins of Native American Myopathy (NAM). The continuation of my education seems headed toward a PsyD in mediation and conflict resolution. Following the path of your life entail understanding that the experience is greater than the destination.
