Bio

I am a Senior at Yale majoring in Philosophy, and I love teaching and chatting about philosophy! I also love fencing, corny movies, fantasy novels, and basketball.

I really love helping others learn, and I think I'm very patient, which helps when explaining difficult concepts. I also know how to keep things light, because I know staying too serious can be a little stressful when trying to understand complicated material. Also, my philosophy education has really helped me learn how to clearly and concisely explain complicated information.
