About

My dissertation research focuses on the ethics and prudential rationality of body-transforming medical interventions such as surgeries to grant new capacities to people with disabilities, sex reassignment surgery, and limb amputation surgery for people with BIID.

My other research interests include: Merleau-Ponty, the McDowell-Dreyfus non-conceptual content debate, reflective equilibrium and moral epistemology, personal identity, the definition of death, and philosophy science.

I am currently teaching a graduate seminar on Bioethical Theory at the Biomedical Ethics Unit of McGill University.
