"A main cause of philosophical
disease [is] a one-sided diet:
one nourishes one's thinking with
only one kind of example."

Assistant Professor of
Philosophy;
Chief Departmental Advisor
My research interests focus on the
intersection of Epistemology and Social
and Political Philosophy. In particular
I am interested in questions of knowledge
and identity in light of differences
in social position. My work draws
on feminist and critical race theorists,
both analytic and continental. In
addition I work on and in the spirit
of the later Wittgenstein insofar
as he sought to avoid both foundationalist
and relativist tendencies in philosophizing.
