Our Team
Brandon Norgaard
Founder, Author, and Project Director
Brandon is the creator and founder of The Enlightened Worldview Project. Brandon has always possessed an interest in understanding how things work and appreciated learning about philosophy, religion, history, politics, science, and technology. Throughout his life, Brandon wanted to better understand why there is so much conflict and injustice in our world and what, if anything, people can do to work toward greater peace. For several years, Brandon worked as a software developer while continuing his study of philosophy and social sciences in his spare time. From 2007 to the present, Brandon has spent many hours writing and developing content for this project. Brandon is also the founder of the Sacramento Politics and Philosophy Group and Sac Dilettantes, organized through Meetup. More info can be found on Brandon’s personal page.
