I am an incoming Postdoctoral Fellow in The Department of Bioethics at the National Institutes of Health (beginning September 9th, 2019). I hold a Ph.D. in Political Science from Stanford University. I also hold an AB in Government from Harvard College, an MSc in Political Theory from the London School of Economics and Political Science, and a Doctorate of Human Sexuality from the Institute for Advanced Study of Human Sexuality. My Ph.D. dissertation, Sex Positive Political Theory: Pleasure, Power, Public Policy, and the Pursuit of Sexual Liberation, focuses on developing a justification for political institutions and civil society taking proactive roles in promoting sexual liberties. My research interests include the application of sexology to political theory, disability politics, bioethics, and LGBTQI activism.
