Howdy! Welcome to my academic website.

I’m an assistant professor in Wesleyan University’s philosophy department. I recieved my PhD at the City University of New York Graduate Center. My research is focused on a cluster of interrelated questions bubbling out of philosophy of race, aesthetics, phenomenology, and metaphilosophy.

Besides my academic work, I’ve written about movies, books, blackness, and love for publications including the New York Times, the LA Review of Books, and most often, and proudly, The Point. I make drone music, play open world video games, and collect tea.

My partner, Maya von Ziegesar, is an incredible philosopher and artist. Check out her page here.
