My philosophical interests center on human experience – what it’s like to be us, from the first-person perspective. I’m curious about cognition, embodiment, phenomenology, and what makes our lives meaningful. I enjoy history, especially the early modern period, and am a member of the Taiwan Studies Working Group. Beyond philosophy, I sing in the UCLA Chamber Singers, sail, and wander museums. Before grad school, I worked as a product manager in tech.
