My research focuses on Ancient, Medieval, and Renaissance Philosophy, especially NeoPlatonism and its reception in Latin Scholasticism, and medieval Jewish Philosophy. I am primarily interested in Late Ancient and Medieval Metaphysics, Philosophy of Mathematics, and Philosophical Theology. Having entered the Philosophy PhD program after training in Notre Dame's Medieval Institute, I work extensively with philosophical materials that exist only in manuscript form, both in Latin and Hebrew. My dissertation will focus on Latin and Hebrew Scholastic debates over the attribute of divine infinity.
Outside of Philosophy I enjoy reading (especially Jane Austen!), baking, hiking, and going to the gym
