I am currently Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Sam Houston State University. I defended my Dissertation, entitled, "Thinking at the Limit of the Human: Nietzsche, Heidegger, and The Fundamental Concepts of Metaphysics" in April of 2016, under the directorship of Dr. Walter Brogan.

I am currently Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Sam Houston State University. I defended my Dissertation, entitled, "Thinking at the Limit of the Human: Nietzsche, Heidegger, and The Fundamental Concepts of Metaphysics" in April of 2016, under the directorship of Dr. Walter Brogan.
My Research is situated at the intersection of history of philosophy and temporal theory, with a specialization in 19th-20th century continental or post-Kantian European philosophy. Thematically, my work takes shape around a curiosity concerning the way we embody and understand (the limits of) time. Having begun to explore the more concrete, phenomenological dimensions of my research and to teach extensively in feminist theory (and critical theory more broadly), I am interested in developing trajectories well beyond the disciplinary quarantine that too often characterizes the practice of philosophy.
Most notably, I am currently exploring the way in which contemporary feminist theorists of color shed new light on trauma and traumatic temporalities and the implications of their insights for the methodology introduced in my dissertation work.
