I am an assistant professor—with a presidential professorship—in the philosophy department at the National University of Singapore. I got my Ph.D. from Rutgers, where I also got an M.S. in mathematics.

Most of my research is on metaphysics, philosophy of science, and philosophy of physics – though I work on epistemology, feminist philosophy, and logic as well. Perhaps the main overarching theme in my work concerns how subjective phenomena appear within seemingly objective features of the world. This theme runs through my publications on probability, typicality facts, explanation, centered propositions, quantum field theories, the logic of identity, and social metaphysics.

Before philosophy, I worked as a documentary filmmaker in Chicago. These days, in addition to philosophy, I like taking pictures, watching movies, knitting, reading and writing poems, teaching outside of the academy, and hiking.
