In June of this year, I quite my high paying job as a database administrator to create space for a new career as a mythologist. What’s a mythologist you ask?
The short answer is a mythologist is lover of mythology. I believe mythology is part of our consciousness even if at times we disparage it or ignore it. A mythologist believes that mythic systems impact our daily lives and if you take time to work with mythic artifacts you will be part of the flow of optimal life experiences.
I think people should read fairy tales, because we’re hungry for a mythology that will speak to our fears.

I’m still hoping to do some work as a database administrator and/or developer as I’ve been doing database work for over twenty-five years and I find myself addicted to the thrill of making things run really, really fast.
