About the Author

Robert N. Stonehill, author of 'Wise and Shine'

A creative theorist, my ideas have influenced academics across the globe—it helps to write about Siberia. I have a diverse twelve years of college credits where most professors have a focused six to eight. Independently, I have studied academic wisdom and spirituality for fifteen years. I am free from affiliation and specialization.

Formally, I studied math and science at Harvard, social science at Purdue, and humanities at Reed. Outside the classroom, I have enjoyed Tae Kwon Do, violin, physical fitness, and Russian language. In early 2014, I began hosting monthly wisdom workshops for my fellow disaffected generalists.

A part-time mystic, I manipulate ideas. My spirit loves music and an independent sense of style. Group dynamics and Russian pop songs make me dance. I live my life outside the dodecahedron.
