A Bit About Me
Pronouns: She/Her
I am interested in trans and queer experience as contemporary philosophical practice. In pursuing this interest, I draw from trans, queer, and feminist scholarship as well as my training in East Asian philosophical traditions and cross-cultural methodologies.
When not on campus, I enjoy the simpler liberatory practices of trail running and reading fiction.
