I’m a Lecturer in the Philosophy Department at Howard University, where I work in normative epistemology, with an emphasis on feminist philosophy and philosophy of race. I received my Phd in Philosophy at Indiana University – Bloomington. Most of my research centers on our interpersonal obligations to one another, especially under unjust social conditions. In my dissertation, I argued that non-group members have both an epistemic and moral duty to defer to marginalized testifiers when they testify about the identity-based harms that they have experienced. I also hold secondary interests in applied ethics and political philosophy. In addition to my philosophical interests, I have also published work on college teaching, with a focus on curricular design and inclusive pedagogy.
