I am an Assistant Professor in Philosophy at University of Missouri St Louis since fall 2007. Before starting at UMSL I was a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Philosophy-Neuroscience-Psychology Program of Washington University in St Louis. I graduated from University of California San Diego with a PhD in Philosophy in 2006.

Some facts about me: born and bred in Russia (Krasnodar, a city in the Northern Caucasus), I have also lived in France and Cyprus. In 1998 I went to the UK to do an MSc in Philosophy of Social Science at the London School of Economics. That's how I found my vocation and also met Robert Northcott who became my husband in June 2005. Our son Andrei was born in April 2008.
