Welcome. I work on ethics, the philosophy of Immanuel Kant—especially his practical philosophy—and the history of philosophy.

I received my PhD in philosophy from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in August 2026. My dissertation is titled A Puzzle of Human Moral Identity.

You can find my papers under Research, and further details about my academic background in my CV.
