I’m a skeptical Christian humanist. (Someday I’ll write about what that means to me.)

With my family, I live in & work from a small homestead in central Minnesota.

I write a newsletter, The Enduring Retreat, that focuses on pursuing wisdom in our left-hemisphere-dominated world.

In addition to writing and homesteading, some of my passions include:

  • the philosophy of mind
  • learning, and thinking about learning
  • AI ethics and explainability, which I write about on LinkedIn
  • books
  • the ethical and aesthetic dimensions of technology
