I am the daughter of a mystic and a blues musician. Sister to a groovy entrepreneur and a tender revolutionary. Wife to a builder of dreams. Mother to a girl that screams, “wow!”, and a boy that twinkles. Carer of an oft-unruly dog.

With all of their influence and support, I am a philosopher working at the node of tech, art, ecology, and spirituality. This vocation involves grace-formed asking, generous listening, intentional writing, and attuned speaking.

In the academic realm, I lecture on AI and robot ethics, digital citizenship, and food systems at engineering universities. No matter the technology, I’m interested in how it shapes our capacity to live in caring conversation.

Unlike the logical argumentation of my academic training, my philosophical work is more of a gesture with palms open. I don’t want to impart knowledge. I want to play, inspire, evoke, and provoke. In this sense, I am an artist.

Beyond academia, I experiment with philosophy in its many trappings: gatherings, essays, podcasts, poems, friendships, spiritual care, walking my dog, and cooking my family’s food. All of this is in service of deeper connection and nurturing beauty.
