Bio
I am a Visiting Assistant Professor of Philosophy and the Graduate Advisor of Record in the Department of Philosophy, Classics, and the Humanities at The University of Texas at San Antonio. I completed my PhD at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in 2022.My research focuses on the first-person point of view of experiencing agents both in philosophy of mind (specifically the relationship between intentionality and consciousness), and various issues in biomedical ethics pertaining to reproductive ethics and personhood. Additionally, I am a part of an interdisciplinary research team across multiple academic institutions investigating nervous and artificial intelligence systems. As a Biomedical Ethicists and Senior Personnel on this team, my primary role will be to launch ethical and philosophical studies of the effects of AI adoption, which includes the design and implementation of professional workshops and Embedded Ethics Modules in both graduate and undergraduate STEM courses (e.g., engineering, neuroscience, and medical humanities) at UTSA.
