I'm a DPhil candidate in philosophy at  University of Oxford.

Between 2021 and 2024, I studied in the department of philosophy at the University of Minnesota, where I earned an MA in philosophy. Before coming to philosophy, I earned ScM in physics at Brown University, an MSEd in teaching at the University of Pennsylvania, and I taught physics for five years at Milton Academy. 

 My research interests span philosophy of physics, metaphysics, and social epistemology, and are broadly concerned with how the structures and norms of epistemic communities shape the content of philosophical research. Currently, I spend most of my time thinking about:

(1) The epistemic value of ontic continuity across scientific theory change;

(2) how a conservative approach to theory interpretation should inform the Everettian's ontological commitments; 

(3) how Bohr's complementarity was weaponized as a tool of epistemic infringement through the early decades of quantum foundations; and

(4) how hierarchical structures in intellectual communities are epistemically harmful, and how to resist.

Outside of philosophy, I enjoy triathlon, climbing, and exploring the outdoors with my spouse Will and Ada, our excellent boxer mix.

As for pronouns, they/them is fine to use in reference to me.
