How to pronounce my name: 

I am a fourth-year graduate student in the philosophy department at OSU. My dissertation is about the nature of positive and negative experiences, such as the discomfort of pain, the pleasure of drinking fine wine, or the enjoyment of reading a good book. In particular, I explore how these experiences can motivate and justify our actions, guiding us to either end or prolong certain states of affairs based on how they feel.

I have written on topics such as pain, AI, VR, and fictional characters. My papers have been published in journals like Analysis, Synthese, Ergo, and Philosophy & Technology. You can find them on my PhilPeople page.
