I am a specialist in phenomenology, philosophy of mind, cognitive science and feminist philosophy.   

I am a currently Visiting Fellow at the Institute for Advanced Study’s School of Social Science in Princeton, New Jersey.  I earned a Ph.D. in Philosophy from Harvard University in 2011 and held the Andrew W. Mellon Postdoctoral Fellowship at the University of Toronto's Jackman Humanities Institute from 2011-2013.

Most broadly, my research concerns the relationship between the mental and the physical.  More particularly, I am interested in the way that our cognitive and perceptual capacities are shaped by our motor abilities.  In this regard, I am grappling with such questions as these: what do pathologies of movement reveal about normal human action, how do skillful actions structure perceptual space (including empty space), in what ways do neurophenomenology and radical architecture destabilize the human-environment relationship, and how might bodily habits change gender norms?
