Teaching
While working on my Ph.D. I have served as an instructor for four courses at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor.
Minds and Machines: a course exploing theories of the human mind and their relations to computational models
Introduction to Formal Methods: an intro to formal tools from propositional logic, probability theory, and the logic of modals and conditionals
Issues in Bioethics: an advanced introduction to topics in bioethics, including autonomy and consent, resource allocation, reproductive ethics, and euthanasia
Introduction to Ethics: a survey of moral philosophy covering classic and new problems in metaethics, normative and applied ethics, and moral psychology
Service
During my doctoral studies I have fulfilled a number of roles in service of my department and the broader community. As Graduate Representative to the Philosophy Faculty, for example, I regularly participated in faculty meetings, communicating graduate perspectives on curriculum changes, hiring, and department inclusivity. I have served in several positions directed toward academic outreach and the removal of barriers to philosophy, acting as my department’s Undergraduate Outreach Coordinator, coaching highschool Ethics Bowl participants from underserved schools, and mentoring PhD program applicants from groups underrepresented in philosophy. Collaborating with graduates at Michigan, MIT, and Princeton, I have had the opportunity to organize several conferences and workshops.
