I am a first-year master's student and graduate teaching assistant at Colorado State University. I grew up in Lexington, South Carolina and attended the University of South Carolina in Columbia for my undergraduate degree, where I studied philosophy and political science. My primary philosophical areas of interest are on the philosophy of trust, Kant, the philosophers of lightness and weight, and pragmatism within the law.

Outside of my studies, I like reading, playing basketball (unfortunately I am not very good) and playing other games, watching professional football, biking, and hiking. I play a little bit of online chess and love completing sudokus.
