Brian McConnell has worked with the underpinnings of Integral thought and theory, primarily in the fields of education and psychology since first introduced to Ken Wilber's, Eye to Eye in 1997. His background in contemplative practice stems from personal study in Theravada Buddhism with Thanissaro Bhikkhu at Metta Forest Monastery.

Having worked with a diverse set of 'popular' subcultures over this same period, learning, leadership, spiritual development, and sustainability generally command the central focus of Brian's work.  He currently serves the role of director for Group Epignosis.
