What is it
Frontier Ideas - Upon reflecting on the question of the afterlife, Carl Jung proposed a solution in Memories, Dreams, Reflections for where information about questions that cannot be scientifically answered can be found and what we can do about it (bolding mine),
“My hypothesis is that we can do so with the aid of hints sent to us from the unconscious—in dreams, for example. Usually we dismiss these hints because we are convinced that the question is not susceptible to answer. In response to this understandable skepticism, I suggest the following consideration. If there is something we cannot know, we must necessarily abandon it as an intellectual problem. For example, I do not know for what reason the universe has come into being, and shall never know. Therefore I must drop this question as a scientific or intellectual problem. But if an idea about it is offered to me—in dreams or in mythic traditions—I ought to take note of it. I even ought to build up a conception on the basis of such hints, even though it will forever remain a hypothesis which I know cannot be proved.
Here, I will explore such ideas that sit on this frontier through the following formats:
Musings on culture through technology and consciousness - Looking at the frontier of our culture through these two primary modalities.
Worldbuilding - Writing about technologies, magic systems, themes, societal structures, and anything else that is gripping my interest and can be found as part of the worlds in the stories I write.
Personal essays - My inner world and my life experiences. I write these essays to understand myself and to help shed light on an inner struggle that might be useful to someone going through a similar problem.

Why I Write
I never thought I'd be a writer.
It's something I grew into. I followed the path that called to me intuitively. I faced the challenges that awaited me. And the path that laid itself in front of me made it clear that writing was fundamental to my life. I love it.
I love to see when it resonates with others. Like something I imagined or something I thought, was either imagined or captivating to someone else, too. It's a beautiful thing, really.
It helps me understand what I think. If I have faulty presumptions. If I'm on to something. And, importantly, it provides me with a meaningful outlet of creation.
I don't know exactly how far I take it, or exactly all the types of things I will write, but the mystery is part of the fun.
Here are some quick facts to give you a solid view of who I am:
An incredibly well-done show, movie, or book is one of my favorite parts of the human experience.
Nothing is more disappointing to me than untapped potential.
In university, I studied accounting and obtained a CPA in June 2021. Professionally, I have spent my career in technology risk management (6 years as of July 2025) and I left the corporate world to pursue becoming an fiction author.
