​My research investigates the relation between technology, ethics, and politics by examining how the history of diverse ethical traditions and Continental philosophy can inform contemporary debates in the philosophy of technology. I completed my Ph.D. with Distinction from DePaul University in 2024 with my dissertation “Work and Leisure in the Digital Age: Aristotle, Hegel, and Stiegler.” I received my MA in Philosophy from DePaul University in 2020 and in German Studies from Middlebury College in 2018. I have also participated in several international exchange programs, including the École Normale Supérieure (Paris), the Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz, and Maastricht University.
 
I have extensive interdisciplinary teaching experience in topics related to the philosophy of technology, the history of philosophy, ethical and political philosophy, and applied ethics (especially bioethics, neuroethics, and AI ethics).
 
In my leisure time, I enjoy traveling, reading long and plotless novels, singing, hiking, watching basketball, and savoring French cheeses.
