The best way of describing the benefits of studying philosophy is that it teaches you to think. About everything and anything. After studying Philosophy and Psychology at the University of St Andrews in Scotland, I entered the working world with this mindset, and it took me far. From English teacher to head teacher, into training and development and program design. After 14 years in the business world, I realized something was missing, and I returned to academia. I now work as a trainer, writer and translator, while also studying full time. I completed my Master’s in Logic and Philosophy of science in 2017, and will complete my PhD in Neuroscience and Philosophy in 2022. I’m passionate about combining my expertise in training with the latest studies on how our minds work to help academics and businesspeople to develop skills for life.
