I am a PhD candidate at the University of Michigan working in political philosophy, cognitive science (esp. addiction), and philosophy of technology. I also have an interest in (the philosophy of) philanthropy. My advisors are Elizabeth Anderson, Renée Jorgensen, and Chandra Sripada.

I previously worked at Stanford as a pre-doctoral research assistant at the Center for Ethics in Society for Rob Reich. Before that, I finished my A.B. in Government from Harvard University (with a focus on political theory), where I worked with Eric Beerbohm and Michael Rosen.
