Bio
I completed the program in Ancient Philosophy at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, in 2020. My dissertation was on Aristotle’s theory of practical rationality, and I have since published papers on Presocratic philosophy, Plato, and Neoplatonism. From 2019 to 2022, I taught at Bowdoin College before joining CSUSB in 2022.
