With a background in neuroscience bachelors from Georgia State University, current work towards a Master’s in Psychology at Harvard University, and a passion for all things wild and wonderful about the world, Graham weaves together narratives that challenge limiting beliefs and inspire personal growth.

Drawing from personal experiences, scientific research, and compelling anecdotes from the wild annals of medical history, Graham aims to expand readers' understanding of their own minds and challenge the narratives they hold about themselves.
Whether through his writing, videos, or workshops, his mission is to help others rewrite their personal narratives, overcome their limiting beliefs, and unlock their full potential.
