I'm an assistant professor in the philosophy department at Yale University. I think a lot about what social classifications like woman, Black, and gay mean and are made of, and how these classifications feature in systems that reproduce inequality.
My primary areas of research are feminist and LGBTQ philosophy, which I approach primarily using tools from metaphysics, epistemology, and philosophy of language. My research emphasizes relations between dynamic social processes and social classifications. I've written about these topics in scholarly journals, in a Supreme Court brief, and in popular media outlets.
I'm currently writing a book about patriarchy as the process that puts "real men" on top. I received my Ph.D in philosophy from Princeton University in 2017, and my M.A. in philosophy from the University of Notre Dame in 2014.
