    From First Job to Career: Why Your First Job Doesn’t Have to Define You

    What was your very first “real” job? Maybe it came after high school or college, or maybe it came long before that.

    Rethinking Competition: A Fresh Perspective on Its Role in Society

    We frequently engage in competition—whether as participants or facilitators—across various contexts, often without conscious awareness or even while denying its presence. While competition is traditionally associated with familiar arenas such as the job market, sports, and college admissions, its influence extends far beyond these settings.

    Rudeness Without Reckoning?

    I’ve got a confession: I sometimes act rather rudely to my AI. Maybe you do too? Ever fired off a curt command to ChatGPT? Directed LLaMA with less than grace? Demanded Bard to do something over?

    Culture, healthcare, and mortality meet

    This blog celebrates publication of Facing death across cultures, a book four years in the making, begun as the pandemic first erupted. Inspiration for the book germinated two decades ago, when I was composing music for a documentary about Mitsuo Aoki, who founded the Department of Religion at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa and […]

    Why don’t we see more autistic people in academia?

    When I was a little girl, bullied by my peers and misunderstood by my teachers, I couldn’t wait to be a grown-up. I dreamed of my future life as a professor, filling my brain with facts and my shelves with books. In my ivory tower, I would be surrounded by peers who shared my love […]

    Just Following Orders: From Perpetrator Testimonies to Brain Research

Watching such documentaries was not uncommon for me, as my studies in neuropsychology and criminology had fueled my desire to better understand human nature and its association with antisocial conduct. This particular documentary narrated the story of a kindergarten […]
