Justin-Ames Gamache – Scholar-Practitioner of Education, Identity, and Mindfulness

Image
My academic and professional journey has been shaped by a deep commitment to learning, leadership, and transformation. As a doctoral candidate in Educational Technology at the University of Phoenix, I am driven by the belief that education is not merely a means to transmit knowledge but a powerful, humanizing process capable of awakening personal agency, resilience, and purpose. My research centers on the intersection of identity, culture, and belonging through an autoethnographic lens, where I draw from personal lived experiences to illuminate broader patterns in education, mental health, and social inclusion. Over the past two decades, I have cultivated a diverse background that spans the fields of education, psychology, music, and leadership. I earned my Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies from Liberty University and went on to complete a Master of Education, followed by a Master of Science in Psychology with Distinction. These academic pursuits reflect not only a ded...

Memoir of Justin-Ames Gamache: A Stoic Reflection

I have lived a life forged by quiet perseverance, shaped not by ease, but by the discipline to rise - again and again - with purpose. I am Justin-Ames Gamache, and I have learned to greet adversity not as an enemy, but as a stern teacher. My journey has not been marked by loud triumphs, but by the steady, deliberate choice to endure with integrity and to grow through hardship. From the early days of academia, I understood the value of inquiry, not just into books, but into the self. My pursuit of education was never simply for credentials, but for clarity of thought and strength of character. I earned my degrees with diligence, each one a rung on the ladder of self-mastery. And yet, I never mistook titles for wisdom - only action tempered by virtue can lay claim to that. There were seasons marked by trials -legal missteps, personal upheaval, and professional challenges - but these did not define me. What defined me was how I responded: not in bitterness, but in resolve. I chose refle...

An Out-of-Body Experience: Journal, Justin-Ames Gamache

It was an experience that defied logic, something I could scarcely put into words an out-of-body phenomenon where I existed in two places at once. In one moment, I was aware of myself, my surroundings, and my physical body, and yet, simultaneously, I was outside of it, hovering, detached, and observing. What followed was both surreal and unsettling, a dance between dimensions that left me both awestruck and shaken. The sensation began subtly, like a gradual drift away from my physical being. It wasn’t immediate, nor was it violent. It was as if a tether connecting my essence to my body had momentarily slackened. I could see myself below, lying motionless, and at first, there was no fear just fascination. I was weightless, unbound by the constraints of flesh and bone.
