Why the Psychedelic Pharmacology Master Series?

It took me 15 years of formal education, post-graduate training, and research conducted independently to gain the knowledge, experience, and skills I needed to construct the educational materials I present in the Psychedelic Psychopharmacology Master Series. 

 

I had to seek information from a patchwork of places over a long period of time and essentially embark on a circuitous educational journey to get to where I am now.

 

Psychedelic research has exploded and we will need a fully functioning fleet of educated professionals to safely implement and harness the tremendous therapeutic potential of these substances and avoid repeating the mistakes of the past. 

 

I sincerely believe that I could have learned what I know now about psychedelics in a much shorter period of time if I had the materials I compiled for the psychedelic pharmacology master series.

 

My aim is to catalyze your foundation for understanding psychedelic science by laying the educational bedrock for cultures focused on safe psychedelic use.

 

The Psychedelic Pharmacology Master Series helps learners all over the world grow into the roles they are destined to play in the psychedelic renaissance at an accelerated rate.
