I am a PhD student studying philosophy at Princeton University.

In 2022, I graduated with a MA in philosophy from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Prior to this, I was an undergraduate student at the NYU Tisch School of the Arts, where I focused on film & television and philosophy, and received my BFA in 2017.

I worked for a few years as a digital artist in the film and television industry before returning to graduate school to pursue philosophy. My work as an artist can be viewed here. I still enjoy creating art in my spare time.

As a philosopher, I have broad interests in both contemporary philosophy and the history of philosophy. Recently, I have been thinking about contemporary issues at the intersection of the philosophy of language and epistemology, such as attitudes we take in response to evidence and what lexical semantics can tell us about them. I have also been thinking about emotions in Aristotle’s Poetics and Nicomachean Ethics.
