Hi! I’m a Ph.D Candidate in Philosophy at the New School for Social Research and an incoming Visiting Assistant Professor in Philosophy at Haverford College.

I’m interested in how social theory can be used as a tool to examine difficult political issues and contradictions. At its best, philosophy is a practice of thinking that can help in building better worlds.

My research is on topics that emerge in Feminist Philosophy and Critical Philosophy of Race, but I also like to think about these topics through a Post-Structuralism and Critical Theory lens. Specifically, I’m working on the topic of narrative as a form of political critique in women of color feminisms. How does storytelling make intelligible identity over time? Or a collectivity? And can it, or should it, mobilize political critique?

I’ve taught at the New School and Fordham University. I have been a Mellon Dissertation Fellow, and Onassis Foundation Fellow. I also love to bike, read novels, and go to the beach.
