Welcome! I am an Assistant Teaching Professor of Philosophy at North Carolina State University. My current work focuses on bioethics, data and technology ethics, and normative ethics.

I am presently researching the utilization of AI decision-making in clinical settings, metrology for medical outcomes (comparison, aggregation), the permissibility of emergent medical practices such as normothermic regional perfusion, palliative care as an epistemically transformative experience, and the ethical justification of tradeoffs between autonomy and other bioethical principles.

I have published in the American Journal of Bioethics and have presented at national and international conferences.

My interdisciplinary philosophical perspective is informed by biomedical science, neuroscience, data science, jurisprudence, public policy, and behavioral economics. I am a Research Associate of The NeuroComputational Ethics Research Group at NCSU, and am on the editorial staff of the American Journal of Bioethics Neuroscience.
