Education
I am currently a Master’s student in Philosophy at the University of Amsterdam. I completed my BA in Philosophy at Pomona College in 2025, graduating Cum Laude.
Interests
My work revolves mainly around questions of the natural and built environment, especially in the traditions of marxism/critical theory, continental philosophy, and anti-colonial thought. While my disciplinary home has always been philosophy, I draw on scholars from across the environmental humanities. Entitled “The Chtulucene Is Colonial Ecology: Ontology and Ethics in Anti-Colonial Environmental Theory,” my undergraduate thesis X. For my Master’s thesis, I plan on Y.
Public Philosophy
I am passionate about public philosophy and educational media, using my professional experience in podcasting—and industry-standard skills in audio/video production, photography, and design—to create philosophical projects for a broader audience, whether beyond philosophy or beyond the academy entirely.
