I am a philosopher working on issues at the intersection of social & political philosophy (particularly "PPE"), Islamic & medieval philosophy, AI, and ethics.

I am currently a PhD candidate at Vanderbilt University. Previously, I earned a PhD in Islamic philosophy from Ankara University.

I am also a fellow at several research centers, including Vanderbilt's interdisciplinary AI lab (VALIANT), the Conceptual Foundations of Conflict Project at USC, and the Mercatus Center at GMU. Since 2021, I have been the co-secretary of the Aquinas and the Arabs International Working Group.

I published a book (The Theological Origins of Liberalism, Lexington) and papers in History of Philosophy Quarterly, Review of Metaphysics, and other venues. My dissertation is on the epistemology of liberalism and the liberalization of nonliberal societies.
