As it evolved, his education was in physics, linguistics, literature, and creative writing, and he was privileged that it could be so. His learning also includes sailing, biking, photography, singing, acting, and cats. After the Peace Corps and an MA at UCLA, he did research in the effectiveness of ESL in the various linguistic regions of Uganda and published several primary school textbooks making use of that data.
