Tell us about your research and scholarly interests.

My philosophical and empirical work focuses on the intersection between values and evidence in the design of educational experiences. I am especially interested in how democratic institutions, law, and markets can be redesigned to support learning and problem-solving across differences in identity and context. I have emerging research interests in the sciences, politics, and epistemology of educational technology.
