Hi, I'm Rika!
I'm what someone once called an “intellectual omnivore.” Outside of university, I spend much of my free time writing about history, science, anthropology, politics, music, and whatever else catches my curiosity.

On the moral life of uncertainty, and what becomes possible when we learn to remain beside a question.
A reflection on judgment, ambiguity, and the quiet human assumptions held inside legal systems.

A field note from the slow work of changing one's mind without abandoning one's center.
