I am an Associate Professor of Philosophy at SUNY New Paltz, where I teach classes in 19th and 20th century continental philosophy (Existentialism, Phenomenology, Philosophy and Technology), philosophy of art and aesthetics, and the history of philosophy (Introduction to Philosophy: Classics).
My research brings together aesthetics, phenomenology, critical theory, and the history of ideas to examine how experience requires us to continually reinvestigate our perception and reinvent our ways of thinking. Applying methods of analysis from the visual arts, poetry, literature, and film to philosophical questions about perception, perspective, and time, my work emphasizes the complexity, ambiguity, and multiplicity of human experiences. While I have explored these ideas mainly through thinkers like Heidegger, Dilthey, Nietzsche, and Foucault—my more recent research examines how feminist and decolonial theory challenge these methods and shift historical narratives.
