David Axelrod, Ph.D.
Economics for Spiritual Growth
My approach to holonomics has developed over the years, along with my skill sets. I earned my Ph.D. in Economics from Rutgers University in 1990, with the dissertation "Three Essays on Latency in Economics and Decision Making". Since then I have worked over 20 years in research and in the financial industry, and then taught for many years at Montclair State University. While there, I developed the course "Economics of Time and Mind", an interdisciplinary approach toward decision making that provides a deeper understanding, and capacity to model, a wide range of economic behaviors and experiences.
During this time I have released over a dozen albums of original music (I started playing electric bass back in 1976!). I have also trained in Reiki to the level of master. The combination of quantitative practice, teaching, artistic expression, and spiritual energy work, enables me to bring complementary tools and perspectives useful for developing a custom approach to your material and spiritual aspirations.
