<div class="name">CARL AVERY</div>
<div class="persona"></div>
<div class="about">
<p>My name is Carl Avery. I was born in Kentucky but have lived most of my life in central New York where I graduated from high school in 2007. I went from there to do my undergraduate work in the cold wastelands of Michigan and then spent a brief time in Philadelphia before finding my way down to the sunny shores of Virginia Beach. A year later I married my wonderful wife, Natalie.</p>
<p>In 2011, I received my Bachelors of Arts degree from Hillsdale College where I double majored in Philosophy and Politics. It was here that I really became fascinated with, not only the abstract concept of justice, but its implementation within our own judicial system. I am currently pursuing my Juris Doctor degree at Regent University School of Law. Upon passing the bar exam, I hope to be able to remain and practice law in Virginia for many years.</p>
<P>I like to think of myself as an <a target="_blank" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armchair_theorizing">armchair philosopher</a>. I am a student of Aristotle who has a passion for Phenomenology and a curiosity for Pragmatism. I am particularly interested in the ideas Aristotle presents in his Nicomachean Ethics. In college, one of my professors impressed upon me the idea that finalizing our beliefs is not necessarily a good thing; this idea remains with me. That being said, I consider myself an orthodox Christian and I have a firm hope in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.</p>
<p>Other interests of mine include racquetball, web design, hiking, conservation, politics, gardening, fashion, and literature. To see why I have adopted &quot;The Decent Man&quot; as my persona <a target="_blank" href="http://thedecentman.blogspot.com/p/about.html">click here</a>.</p>
