Philosophy gives us an opportunity to rediscover our intellectual curiosity, especially when applied to questions not traditionally considered 'philosophy'. I think the value of philosophy, and in its study, lies in its demand that we ask questions, and that we refuse to settle for easy answers. Unfortunately, philosophy has become more and more removed from the public sphere.

My work in public philosophy aims to change that. I want to rekindle our desire to ask even the simplest and silliest of questions. For instance, questions like: is the sky really blue?, or do I actually exist? The podcasts I wrote for the Texas Humanities Project address many such questions.

One of my major goals is to bring philosophy to groups who lack access to it. With this goal in mind, I founded Corrupt the Youth - a philosophy outreach program that works with high school students in under-resourced schools. 

I have also written pieces about pre-college philosophy programs, and on the lack of diversity in philosophy.
