Personal

I’m Catholic and try as best as I can to live a life of religious conformity.

On a high level, I aspire to be a polymath: a person who integrates and synthesizes knowledge across various distinct fields, developing new avocations and using their multiple interests to inform their true vocation.

An influential work in my intellectual life is the Theology and Thomistic Philosophy online course course called Estudos Tomistas by professor Carlos Nougué. Other influences include Curso de Filosofia (COF) by Olavo de Carvalho.
