I am an Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Trinity College in Hartford, CT. Prior to that, I was a Visiting Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Sarah Lawrence College.
I completed my PhD in the Department of Philosophy at Northwestern University in 2022.
My research lies at the intersection of Africana Philosophy and Phenomenology. Drawing primarily on the work of Paulin J. Hountondji, I’m interested in meta-philosophical questions pertaining to the possibility and desirability of phenomenology as rigorous science.
Some of the other figures I work on include Edmund Husserl, Frantz Fanon, Aimé Césaire, Jacques Derrida and Gayatri Spivak.
In my free time, I like to read novels and poetry, go for (short) walks in nature, and rearrange my furniture.
