Hi, my name is Robert. I'm a home healthcare aide and full time student. I have a passion for Russian literature, philosophy, religion and politics. I speak German, Central Alaskan Yupik (learning through my tribe's program), and English, and have a passion to learn and understand more as I go along. I play guitar, saxophone and am currently restoring my grandfather's 1953 Chevrolet pickup truck in my spare time.

If I become a consistent Wikipedia contributor, you'll find me deeply immersed in Native American and Alaskan Native culture and linguistics, along with a few expeditions into the territory of Tolstoy's later philosophy. Hegel's dialectic and dialectical materialism, along with Slavoj Zizek's interpretation of Lacanian psychoanalysis may be another academic battleground to immerse myself in as time goes on. I hope to make whatever edits as accessible and transparent as I can, I strive to make everyone from laymen to academics understand what I write.
