After nearly 25 years in higher education, I stepped outside the Ivory Tower and found myself seeing it a little differently. I started this Substack to share those reflections honestly, from what I still believe in to what I think needs to change. Whether you’re still working in higher ed, thinking about leaving, or already building your next chapter, I hope you find something here that makes you think, feel understood, or see the road ahead a little more clearly.
