Hi! I am an incoming MLitt student in philosophy at the University of St Andrews. I am primarily interested in moral, legal, and political philosophy. My current studies focus on egalitarianism, just war theory, and general jurisprudence, but I am also interested in neighboring fields like effective altruism and human rights.

I received my B.A. in Mathematics and Philosophy from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where I was fortunate to be mentored by Professor James Goodrich and Professor Nina Varsava.
