Research and Teaching Interests, or Professional Field
I research whether evolutionary history poses any problems for our moral knowledge. I enjoy teaching ethics-heavy classes and I look forward to teaching the newly-approved philosophy of biology course next Spring!
Experience as A Graduate Student at FSU
I really enjoy our department's social life and collegiality. Living in a house full of FSU philosophers has also been fun! I've learned so much from my peers.
Experience as A Member of The Fellows Society
Being surrounded by hard-working, ambitious peers always drives me to excel and do more.
Future Plans/Aspirations
Teaching really is my passion. I would love to teach philosophy!
