The image is a split portrait featuring two famous 20th-century philosophers. On the left is a color photograph of Martin Heidegger, who has silver hair, a mustache, and wears a tweed jacket; he sits indoors with bookshelves and a window in the background. On the right is a black-and-white photo of Jean-Paul Sartre, seen wearing glasses and a suit with a tie, seated at a cafe with blurred figures and windows behind him. The juxtaposition highlights both the visual and contextual contrast between the two intellectual figures from different settings and photographic styles.

Ideals and Identities
I am an internationally and domestically (Canada) experienced educator and writer who impacts people’s lives by helping them bridge social barriers through language and concept education, and professional teaching and learning opportunities. But more than this, I want us to be encouraged to inhabit fully the Kingdom of God.
My educational background includes formal training in Philosophy and Metacognition, Linguistics, Religious Studies, History, teaching certification, and ESL practice. But it also includes many years of travels/residence throughout North America, East and Southeast Asia, the Middle East and North Africa, and Northern Europe. Within this has been the study of other languages with various proficiency, and and intimate awareness of Zen meditation studied in South Korea.
Importantly, I am a husband and a father, and in those roles and others, I have a wide reach of connection in various international communities.
