ABOUT
I am a philosophy Ph.D. student at the University of Michigan. Before coming to Ann Arbor, I studied philosophy and microbiology at UC Berkeley. Before that, I grew up in San Francisco.
During the 2026 summer and fall semesters, I will be visiting the PONS group at the University of Tübingen.
My research interests are in metaethics, action theory, and the philosophy of science.
You can find me online on Substack, the UMich philosophy department directory, LinkedIn, PhilPeople, and Instagram.
