I am an independent researcher, with interests in the philosophy of language and theory of mind. I receieved my MA at The New School for Social Research in Liberal Studies, with a focus on interdisciplinary understandings of language and phenomenology. I also have a soft spot for animal ethics, immigrant rights, and Shakespeare.

In a previous life, I was a data scientist and engineer. I initially received a BSc in Information Sciences and Technology from Pennsyania State University, then my MSc in Artificial Intelligence at the University of Edinburgh. As a part of that career, I've also founded a startup specializing in natural language processing in the Chinese language.
