I am an Associate Professor of Philosophy at Rhodes College. I work in ethics and the philosophy of race, sex, and gender, with particular interests in bioethics and the ethics of identity.
My research focuses on transracial identity, cultural appropriation, animal ethics, and the ethical limits of academic inquiry. I have designed and taught courses in clinical bioethics, medical ethics, philosophy of race, sex, and gender, and the ethics of emerging technology in my intro course Black Mirror and Philosophy. My current book project examines the ethics and metaphysics of changing one's race.
