Aspen Eggimann
Raised in the beautiful mountains of Eastern Idaho, Aspen was homeschooled and self-taught until age seventeen when she began attending George Wythe University where she is currently pursuing undergraduate studies in Statesmanship. A natural teacher with a passion for working with youth, she has taught for commonwealth schools in Idaho and Utah and currently works as field staff for a wilderness youth therapy program.
Aspen continually seeks her education through experience, books, and people that can deepen and broaden her knowledge and understanding. Her passions include playing outdoors, music, art, discussion, writing, spending time with her family and friends, traveling and living with purpose. She has committed her life to living and promoting the principles of liberty, Georgics, family, personal mission, liber education, and Providence. She firmly believes that, through the help of God, educated men and women can uphold freedom and move the cause of liberty.

Mike Wilson
Mike received his B.S. degree in Chemistry from Brigham Young University and pursued graduate work at the University of California, San Diego, where he earned a M.S. degree in Biomedical Sciences prior to obtaining his M.D. at the UCSD School of Medicine.
He lives in Cedar City, Utah with his wife Jenni and their six children and practices emergency medicine in St. George, Utah while working on a Ph.D. in Constitutional Law at George Wythe University. He is also an Associate Mentor at GWU.
Mike’s passion is promoting idea that the common man has power and capacity to affect grand change in the world through true principles of love, goodness, and virtue. Because of his Jeffersonian trust in the common man, he considers himself a “little d” democrat (an ideal, not a political party). He believes that the cause of liberty is founded essentially in widespread powerful education, checks on power, and promotion of virtue and goodness. Force is never a real solution to problems for Mike and the statesman’s role is to understand the ideal, see where society is, and then put himself in a position to move society in the direction of the ideal.
