2nd Year Graduate Student | M.A. program in Philosophy

I harbour a strong interest in Philosophy, including metaphysics, history of philosophy, ethics, and epistemology. From a historical perspective, I find myself particularly drawn to exploring the different cultural lenses linked to the genealogy of concepts such as reason, truth and justice, as well as the impact of different time periods in their interpretation. I am very keen to enhance my knowledge and expertise in the history of philosophy, especially ancient philosophy – as I believe that by following the teachings of ancient philosophy we can positively influence our own lives in the present and future. I also wish to explore many other philosophical fields such as metaphysics, epistemology, ontology etc.

Before coming to Columbia, I received my BA from the University of British Columbia.
