Brian J. Mistler was born in the U.S.A. in a small Missouri town, and moved with his sister – a year and a half his junior – and his parents to Florida when he was twelve. He remained on the west coast of Florida with his parents (who soon divorced) until 1998 when he chose to attend Stetson University, a small private liberal arts school near Daytona Beach. During his time at Stetson Brian served actively as the president of the college chapter of Habitat for Humanity, chairman of the Inter-fraternity Judicial Board, and was elected President of the Student Government. In this latter capacity, Brian worked closely with the Faculty Senate and President’s Staff, served on the University Board of Trustees, College of Arts & Science Curriculum Committee, and chaired and/or served on various other committees. With thesis work in theoretical and applied multivalent logic, in the spring of 2001, he completed his Batchelor of Science in Philosophy and Computer Science, and a Batchelor of Arts in Humanities (with a Psychology minor). Current research interests include: analogical reasoning and its role in learning and (worldview) mediation, comparative religion, and the role of family relationships in business and politics. After graduation Brian traveled to work with the Alliance for International Reforestation in rural Guatemala. It is through the generous support of the Rotary Foundation of Rotary International that Brian is now able to attend the University of Bradford’s MA program in Conflict Resolution.
