I'm a philosopher working in ethics, philosophy of action, and social/political philosophy. Most of my research has focused on integrity and temporally extended agency. I am interested in how we sustain our agency across time through reflective endorsement of our values and commitments. Many of my side projects are in aesthetics.

I'm an Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Washington & Lee University, where I teach classes in ethics, political philosophy, political economy, philosophy of race, aesthetics, and existentialism. During the 2024-2025 academic year, I was a Fellow at the National Humanities Center. I received my PhD in philosophy from the University of Michigan in 2022 and my BA in philosophy and architecture from Wellesley College in 2017.

I spend most of my spare time reading and watching movies.
