Philosophizing @ U Cincy. Thinking about identity, social epistemology, & philosophical pedagogy. In my spare time I like to fight, both ideas and people.

Had the absolute day from hell. Went to move in to my new apt. 90 degrees out, AC not working. On top of that, major roach infestation I didn’t notice until half of my stuff was moved in. Now in temporary housing while I figure out how to break my lease & get my money/stuff back

If memory serves, Plato was also a wrestler 🤓
Ah yes, what you should do at an academic conference is…grapple a fellow philosopher in a sand volleyball court? Anyway, I had a blast at the AAPT @theaapt.bsky.social conference talking about pedagogy with some of the best and kindest people in the profession 🤓 🤼‍♀️🧠

My dream job is just whatever Nathan Fielder does. If any philosophy departments are hiring a “Nathan Fielder-style” position, you know how to reach me.

Today I had a fellow university employee/student ask me why packages on every floor of the building my department is in are going uncollected. I’m glad you found me, sir. While I am in an office called “graduate student office,” that is merely a ruse—for I am actually the Boss of University Packages

Being gluten free in an airport is hell because I’m eating warm baby carrots I’ve have in my bag since 10am and a gluten free hot dog bun. Nothing in it. Just a bun.

Just watched a girl walk into the ocean, fill up a plastic cup with water, and CHUG half of it. Much to think about.

Don’t worry…I’m still out here running 🏃🏻‍♀️ 💜 I’m raising money for Project Purple in honor of my grandma and her journey with pancreatic cancer. My training for the 2025 Chicago Marathon has officially started. 🏃🏻‍♀️ 💜

You ever try to stretch your travel funding in new creative ways and genuinely start looking into attending a time share presentation for cheaper accommodations? Yeah…me neither…totally wouldn’t do that…

Imagine not being able to read a room as bad as Katy Perry and the rich ****s on that space flight. I’m so glad your 11 minute space trek made you feel “connected to love” … im sure the people without food, housing, and healthcare are so thrilled for your love connection!!!! Girlbosses in space 🤩🤩🤩

Yesterday my roommates boyfriend (not a philosopher) asked me if Blade Runner was inspired by Descartes and I felt my brain do a hard reset

Traveled with my 1000 & 3000 level Ethics Bowl students to Salt Lake City this weekend! They competed in the Collegiate Bioethics Bowl at Westminster University. We didn’t advanced to finals, but I’ve had a ton of fun teaching them this semester & learning from and with them! Now, time to explore. 😎
