I am currently an Adjunct Assistant Professor at Harvey Mudd College. During the Spring 2026 semester, I am teaching a course in epistemology (topics include echo chambers, attention, and expert testimony).
My research is primarily in early modern European philosophy, particularly the thought of Spinoza and Descartes. I completed my Ph.D. in philosophy at UCLA under the supervision of John Carriero.
