Biography

I am a PhD student in the Department of Philosophy, interested in the philosophy of biology, bioethics, and the philosophy of medicine. My dissertation research is in the philosophy of aging, in particular relating to the ethical and epistemic implications of advances in the biology of aging. Starting Autumn 2024, I am co-leading the UW Graduate Aging Group, along with Sarah McKiddy (PhD candidate, School of Nursing), which aims to foster an interdisciplinary group of graduate students interested in aging-related research. I also spend time as a research associate with the UW Neuroethics Research Group and work as a hospitalist physician.
