I write and dabble in essays that look like koans, sticky notes that turn into haikus, bumper stickers, observations, annotated readings of books (not reviews), abstracts, provocations, biomythographies, declarative sentences, love letters, engravings, obituaries, emails and sometimes dictionaries.

The Anthropolojist is a contemporary journal dedicated to distilling anthropology in a (j)gist, into its most engaging and accessible form. My aim is to share insights, observations, and provocations from anthropological perspectives worldwide, reaching diverse audiences beyond traditional academic boundaries.

I hope to publish essays, reviews of books, films, recordings, and exhibits, all under the expansive umbrella of anthropology.
