Hello!
I'm a philosopher and critical disability theorist. I was an Irish Research Council Government of Ireland Postgraduate Scholar in University College Dublin School of Philosophy. I use a variety of approaches—including feminist and continental philosophy, and actor-network theory—to understand different aspects of disability.
I'm particularly interested in the relationships and tensions between everyday understandings of disability and humanness: that is, different ways disability is understood and represented as a lack of, or deviation from, what is fully or properly human. I'm also focused on ethical approaches to disability that avoid appeals—manifest or latent—to overarching notions of humanness.
This website used to be a place to share conference and workshop papers. I have archived some of these that have been published. You can find out about those in my curriculum vitae. There are still some old presentation texts in the posts section. Some of these contain ideas that I was developing at the time, but do not wholeheartedly subscribe to any longer.
You can find me on Bluesky, Instagram, ORCiD, and ResearchGate.
