DIVERSIFYING PHILOSOPHY

​

Throughout grad school, I was actively involved in Minorities and Philosophy (MAP) and served as the chapter head for MAP-Penn for three years. In this role, I facilitated reading groups, organized four conferences (the MAP-Penn Conference on Philosophy of Race, the MAP-Penn Conference on Philosophy of Disability and Illness, the MAP-Penn Summer Colloquium on Philosophy of Disability and Illness, the MAP-Penn Conference on Climate Justice), and launched a visiting speaker series. I also created and managed a digital platform for the Penn philosophy community to share ideas on diversifying syllabi and course content, and contributed as a website creator and organizational consultant for the 6th Latinx Philosophy Conference at Temple University. At Dartmouth, I co-organized an event focusing on Diné philosophies, and taught a cross-cultural epistemology course twice.

​

MENTORSHIP

​

I regularly mentor first-generation, low-income, and international students, both officially and unofficially. For example, I was a STAMP (Step-Ahead Mentorship Program) mentor at Penn for three semesters. 

​

DEPARTMENTAL SERVICE & WELLNESS

​

At Penn, I served as a graduate representative for the philosophy department and as a graduate student office hour coordinator, and organized the Penn Philosophy & Film series for two years. Additionally, I pioneered the role of graduate student wellness representative, organizing "W(h)ine and Cheese nights," Art Museum trips, Park picnics, and other events, while maintaining our department's "Wellness Locker."

 

At Dartmouth, I hosted Susanna Schellenberg (Rutgers), Kathleen Akins (SFU) and Martin Hahn (SFU), and organized three events focusing on the philosophy of pain and medicine: a talk by Sabrina Coninx (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam), an early-career workshop on pain, and a workshop on philosophy of medicine, broadly construed. I also served on various teaching panels, including one that focused on student wellness.

 

TEACHING: DISABILITY INCLUSION AND ACCESSIBILITY

​

Recently, I have focused on disability inclusion and accessibility. Alongside organizing two MAP-Penn conferences on the philosophy of disability, I organized a teaching workshop on disability inclusion and accessibility in 2022.​​ At Dartmouth, I completed two Accessible Dartmouth Initiative grant programs.
