About meAdjunct Instructor, Buena Vista University

Ph.D., Political Science, Louisiana State University, May 2009

I recently finished my dissertation in political philosophy. I'm a libertarian, a gun owner, and a fan of science fiction and fantasy.

About my libraryI estimate I've got about 1/3 of my library cataloged now. The rest is still boxed up due to lack of shelf space.

What's in my library? As far as fiction goes, it is mostly science fiction and fantasy. Nonfiction: political science, philosophy, history, economics, psychology, natural science, cookbooks, gun-related, etc.
