Welcome to my channel, where my passion for philosophy drives every discussion, reflection, and exploration. Whether you're here to dive deep into ancient wisdom, explore modern interpretations, or broaden your intellectual horizons, you're in the right place.

I am thrilled to share my journey in philosophy with you, especially through my latest work, Plato Re-Imagined, which I co-authored with Dr. Martine Diepenbroek, a Classics & Ancient History Research Fellow from the University of Johannesburg. This book is more than just a scholarly endeavor; it represents a bridge between ancient philosophical traditions and contemporary thought, offering fresh insights into Plato's timeless dialogues.

If you want to go even deeper, I invite you to explore our companion course, available exclusively through planksip® Academy. This course is designed to challenge your understanding, encourage critical thinking, and bring the wisdom of the past into meaningful conversation with the present.
