I am a Postdoctoral Scholar in History and Philosophy of Science at the Einstein Papers Project at Caltech. From 2023 to 2025 I was lucky to be a Teaching Fellow at St. Johns College, Santa Fe, where I taught “the great books”. Before moving to Santa Fe, I did a PhD in philosophy at the University of Southern California. Before moving to LA, I studied physics and philosophy at Northeastern University.

I have interests in the history and philosophy of science, particularly physics, and related areas in metaphysics. I also have interests in the history of philosophy, particularly Kant, Wittgenstein, and phenomenology.

I am currently running the Caltech Philosophy of Science Reading Group. If you’d like to join the email list, feel free to use the link above or let me know.

You can also find my work online at PhilPeople, academic.edu Google Scholar, and the philsci-archive.
