Research

My research interests lie in ethics, feminist philosophy and social epistemology, critical philosophy of race, and social and political philosophy. I focus on normative and epistemic questions that emerge under conditions of widespread collective wrongdoing and epistemic oppression, aiming to explain these wrongs and our responsibilities for them. These interests have led me to work on a cluster of issues including moral repair and apology, shame and agent-regret, white ignorance, epistemic injustice, responsibility for structural injustice, and complicity. My articles have been published in Metaphilosophy (2017; with Ellen K. Feder), Critical Philosophy of Race (2021), Social Epistemology (2023), Philosophical Topics (forthcoming in 2026), and The Journal of Ethics (forthcoming in 2026).
