Research Interests

I have quite a few research interests (to put it lightly). As I continue to develop and refine my dissertation project, these interests will be preserved as I weave them together. As an interdisciplinary scholar who has always been drawn to expansive questions, I find there are more connections between fields than we care to readily admit.

All that said, below are my main philosophical "buckets".

​

Social Epistemology
Philosophy
of Action
Philosophy of Mind
Current Themes of Interest to Me

Aside from my limited buckets, my work moves between a lot of different conversations and concepts. Here are the main ones I am concerned with right now.

  • Cognitive science and Social Psychology
    • Affect ​
  • Philosophy of Action in step with Philosophy of Mind: assigning culpability and blameworthiness while looking at marginalized people’s responses in instances of learned helplessness and trauma
  • Anti-Colonialism and Philosophy of Liberation
  • Narrative Theory and Poetics
  • Social Epistemology and constructions of knowledge of identity/self
  • Active apathy as an act of survival: why social movements fail and what they face
  • Latin American  (specifically the Caribbean) and Middle Eastern Philosophy
