I'm a second-year PhD student in Philosophy at MIT, advised by Kevin Dorst.
I mainly work on epistemology and philosophy of language.Â
Before MIT, I studied philosophy and mathematics at Tufts University. Before that I was born and raised in Beijing, China.

forthcoming in Philosophy and Phenomenological Research
