philosophy student and mother

Why do we make the decisions we do? And how do we make better decisions? And who is determining what decisions are better anyway?

I’m a first-year PhD student, and I love the intersection of philosophy, psychology, economics, and whatever else helps me understand people and life.

I’m also the mom of four children and I blog a few times a month on life and the lessons I’m learning along the way.

I live in the mountains of Utah in a house my grandpa built and I enjoy hiking, home renovation, and reading.
