Hello! I am an MLitt student at the St Andrews and Stirling Graduate Programme in Philosophy.
I am primarily interested in moral, legal, and political philosophy. My current studies focus on theories of distributive justice, rights, and the methodology of political philosophy.
I received my B.A. in Mathematics and Philosophy from the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
