The ESS Program

Professor Amy Keely has been called a "Renaissance Woman" because of her depth of knowledge in a wide variety of areas, making her an inter-disciplinarian. Instead of being niche and targeting a specific audience with a narrow focus (as she teaches in her marketing classes), she now "owns" being an expert in many areas.

 

She is committed to sharing her unique perspective and knowledge with others so they can successfully change their life, career or business. She offers courses, seminars, and Master Classes not offered in most colleges.

​​

She obtained a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Michigan, with a major in English and an emphasis in psychology and communications. She also holds an MBA, a Master of Education, and a PhD ABD in Philosophy and Aesthetics of Art Theory.

​

The Professor is never more satisfied than when people begin to see their true value and achieve their goals! It has become her life's mission in this insane world.

 

Recently, she has come to understand that her search for knowledge is due to being a Parentified child. So what started out as an unconscious need to protect herself has become a thirst for finding truths in the sea of misinformation.

​

The Professor is an award-winning marketer, which means she is really good at quickly recognizing the "manipulative spin" in the media, government, corporate, and academia. It is because marketers are the puppet masters who are adept at understanding human behaviors in order to sell them things that they may or may not need.

​​

She has researched the great ancient Masters, and most of them had a broad set of knowledge that gave them greater insights that impacted their work. Da Vinci was a painter, inventor, autopsy biologist, and naturalist. Raphael was a painter, architect, printmaker, city planner, and philosopher. You can find ancient Eastern philosophic notions in Anime shows. The Professor finds support for why she embraces the Renaissance Woman title in the quote from Ghost in the Shell, "Over-Specialize, And You Breed In Weakness. It's Slow Death."

​​

She has, as she likes to call it, "gone down the rabbit hole" on many topics. Her areas of expertise include business, marketing, manufacturing, quality process management, technology, English and literature, psychology and life coaching, mental health advocacy and dementia caregiving, fine art and craft arts, philosophy and fashion philosophy, jewelry making, education, theology and its links astrology, government and specific laws, prehistoric and modern history as well as world cultures, genealogy, ancient mysteries and conspiracies, antique collectibles including appraising, and more.
