I have recently completed Hauser Global Fellowship at New York University, and am now an Assistant Professor of Philosophy (fixed-term) at the University of Toronto. 

My interests are primarily in political philosophy, ethics, and philosophy of law. I am interested specifically in democratic theory, the use of democratic devices like participatory budgeting, referendums, citizen’s assemblies, and random selection in politics.
