I aim to connect philosophical inquiry to the concrete goals and concerns of students.
 
This approach begins from the fact that classes include students with diverse backgrounds and goals, especially in undergraduate courses. I make a point of learning what brings them into the course, and frame the classes so that the material connects with what they already know and what they care about. I stress that our work in the class matters to both their path through the university and for life beyond it. 
​
I place special emphasis on teaching skills that are often not taught explicitly, such as learning how to outline course materials. I see this as essential not only for writing well but also for thinking clearly.
​
These are some of the courses and seminars I am ready to teach:
 

• Reasoning & Argumentation. Introductory Undergraduate Course.

• Medical Ethics. Introductory Undergraduate Course.

• Philosophy of Science. Advanced Undergraduate Course.

• Logic. Advanced Undergraduate Course.

Teaching and AI:

​

I'm involved in the Boston University Humanities and AI Lab (HAIL), an interdisciplinary, student-centered group that brings together undergraduate and graduate students to explore AI's social, political, and ethical dimensions.

 

I led the group in its first semester (Spring 2026), when students produced a white paper on BU's AI certificate for AIDA.

 

HAIL examines the often overlooked value-laden considerations that guide AI research, and aims to create a space in which students from different backgrounds can engage in joint, productive inquiry into the epistemic, ethical, social, and political questions raised by AI.
