THINKING

Record a perspective. Leave room to change.

I start with questions. Medicine, technology, running and faith offer different ways into the world; writing helps me examine what I actually understand.

QUESTIONS, NOT CONCLUSIONS

Three lines of inquiry, still unfolding.

These are directions of inquiry. The links lead to existing research, projects and personal background.

01 / MEDICINE & MIND

How do we understand a person?

From cells and electrical signals to consciousness and experience, medicine draws me toward mechanisms—and reminds me to look across scales.

02 / TOOLS & JUDGMENT

How does understanding become something useful?

Turning an idea into software makes an abstract mechanism tangible. Building is also how I test my understanding and discover its gaps.

03 / PRACTICE & MEANING

How do we live with limits and uncertainty?

Running, reading and reflection on Christianity lead me to other questions: what is worth believing, how do we face our limits, and what deserves a lasting commitment?
