I’m a Postdoctoral Associate at MIT. I received my PhD in Philosophy from Brown in 2025.

I work on welfare, consciousness, and personal identity, with a focus on AI and animals. I’m also interested in the emerging phenomenon of friendships with chatbots.

Before coming to Brown, I worked in finance (here and here). I have an AB in Applied Mathematics from Harvard.

Here is my CV. My email is [my last name] [at] mit [dot] edu.

Outside of philosophy, I enjoy spending time with my family, running, and vegan cooking.

Here is a short video of me explaining why it’s good to have a body.
