TEACHING INTERESTS
I began my full-time teaching career at CSLA in 1997. Prior to that I worked as a geotechnical consultant in the Los Angeles area for such companies as Woodward-Clyde, Law/Crandall, and Leroy Crandall & Associates. I have maintained a consulting role but now focus primarily in conducting advanced laboratory testing (Triaxial, Direct Simple Shear, Resonant Column, Torsion Shear, Ring Shear). Our geotechnical laboratory is fully equipped to handle a wide variety of testing conditions. I also maintain an array of in-situ penetrometers (cone, ball, vane).
I've been at Cal State LA since 2007. My BA is from Vassar College (1995), and my PhD is from Stony Brook University (2003). I specialize in Phenomenology and Husserl Scholarship, with research interests in Modern Philosophy and Philosophy of Mind. I regularly teach PHIL 1510 Thought and Reality, PHIL 1520 Human Values, PHIL 4450 Existentialism, and PHIL 4460 Phenomenology; as well as related graduate-level courses. I am also the faculty advisor to Philosophy in Practice, our department's student-run journal.
