Spirituality
Spiritual revelations do not arrive from thinking long & hard about Divinity. They come through silencing our thoughts, moving our ego out of the way, and opening up to the quiet, mysterious, spiritual realm that is always here with us. The world of soul is here and now, superimposed and woven through the world of the five sense. It doesn't take belief. It is Reality itself. You must only learn to see beyond the veils.
“There is another world, but it is in this one."
–W.B. Yeats

Healing
Healing occurs in the mind, heart, spirit, and body. Any system of self-improvement that does not address all of these essential components of the human being is lacking. I believe this so strongly I’ll repeat it: Any attempt to heal only one aspect of yourself without addressing the others, will ultimately lead to imbalance and unhappiness.
Welcome!
This page offers a visual and informative glimpse into my former role as an Associate Professor in the Honors College at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. Rather than serving as a formal teaching portfolio, this space is meant to provide an overview of the kinds of courses I created & taught—blending literature, philosophy, spirituality, and critical inquiry.
If you're seeking official academic materials—such as my curriculum vitae, teaching philosophy, syllabi, awards, thesis committees, or a full list of courses taught—please feel free to reach out to me directly.

Mindfulness in the Mountains
This video is an introduction to the Mindfulness in the Mountains meditation program I created for UNLV Honors College students.
"We Got This"
This is a video made by myself and some of the UNLV Honors College students, toward the start of the COVID pandemic.
"Elephant Daydreams"
This beautiful short film was created by Nadine Veitnere, a student in my course: The Art of Story Telling... Nadine's film was accepted into the 54th Annual WorldFest-Houston International Film Festival, where it received an award in the "Whimsical Shorts" category. Nadine is an incredible human being, and I'm so impressed that she completed this project entirely on her own while in quarantine. Even more remarkable: Nadine wasn't even a fine arts or liberal arts major... she was studying biology.
