Begin With Clarity
Welcome to my newsletter, where the science of behavior meets education and systems change.
If you’ve ever thought:
“Why does no one seem to think anymore?”
“How did performance replace understanding in school, on social media, and everywhere else?”
“Why are we rewarding reactivity over reflection, and how do we change that?”
You’re in the right place.
What This Newsletter Is About
This is a space for individuals who want to understand the underlying causes behind the reading crisis, classroom disruptions, and reactive thinking, and take action.
I write about:
The consequences of misguided reading instruction
How reinforcement systems shape behavior across classrooms and culture
Why students and adults are struggling to sustain attention, retain knowledge, and think critically
What it takes to build durable systems of learning, behavior, and instruction
Everything I share is grounded in behavior science, with practical applications.
