Hello domus de Eliot! I am an M3 at Harvard Medical School who is passionate about creating new approaches to mental health. Areas of research that I focus on include addiction, trauma, toxic masculinity, and, most generally, philosophical  theories of the mind and brain. Prior to starting medical school, I completed a Ph.D. in philosophy with a dissertation on the metaphysical relationship between intensive and extensive magnitudes, the generation of novelty in nature, and non-teleological ethical systems. I can frequently be seen in the Eliot House gym, library, or d-hall. In addition to medicine and philosophy, I am passionate about art (especially film), baking, and dancing. Please reach out to me if you want to chat about, or share a meal over, any of your own questions, passions or experiences – I would love to hear from you.
