If you want to delve into greater depths, read my more complete bio page which will tell you more than anyone should ever want to know about me including my views of the concept of the self, more details on who I am and what I do, and a deeper look at my thoughts on politics, religion and philosophy!
- Name: Howard
- Current Location: Oak Park, MI (just north of Detroit)
- Born in: Carlsbad, CA
- Education: B.A. in Psychology from University of Michigan & M.D. from Wayne State University
- Career: Personal (Life) Coach, Group/Organizational/Business Consultant and Trainer through my company, Emergent Associates, LLC. I left medicine in 2001, foregoing a residency in psychiatry, to become Vice-President of a software company. After some time focused on consulting to a non-profit, a partner and I founded Emergent Associates.
- Other Activities: See my interests and projects
- Religious Persuasion: Agnostic. I get along great with other agnostics, atheists, those of Eastern religious views (Buddhism, Tao, etc.), and often those with more nature-based religious views.
- Political Persuasion: I'm an Independent who leans very strongly toward the platform of the Green Party and its ten key values. I am an activist for election reform and other key political issues. My two biggest political concerns are Instant Runoff Voting and Campaign Finance Reform because these two reforms will make all of the other necessary reforms possible. Without them, most of the other reforms will remain out of reach.
