I’m a millennial speaker/dramatist/disruptor who’s written a book entitled Societal Dropout: A Cultural Manifesto. Each chapter is a standalone essay, inspired and informed by my experience answering questions on Quora (888,800 readers). The book gives voice to truths many of us feel but don’t know how to articulate. Topics I explore include mental health and happiness, critical thinking, creativity, gender, sex, suicide, drugs, art, etc.
