About Me
I am a PhD student at the Morality Lab in the Department of Psychology & Neuroscience at Boston College. My research focuses on how people perceive emerging technologies, such as AI agents, and how these artifacts impact human moral reasoning. Ultimately, I am interested in exploring how new technologies can be leveraged to creatively solve longstanding problems and promote human flourishing.
