I am an assistant professor in the Department of Philosophy and director of the Ethics and Public Policy Program at Clark University. I work mainly in ethics, philosophy of action, philosophy of mind, and philosophy of law.
I'm also the project lead for digital ethics and governance at the Jain Family Institute (JFI), an applied research organization in New York City. Previously, I was a postdoctoral research fellow in philosophy at Northeastern University and a visiting lecturer in philosophy at Mount Holyoke College. I completed my PhD in philosophy at MIT in 2016. I studied political science and philosophy as an undergraduate at the University of Pittsburgh. I'm Indo-Caribbean-American. I was born and raised in Queens, New York, by parents from the island of Trinidad, where my great grandparents were brought as indentured servants from the Indian subcontinent.
