Research Interests
My research is aimed at understanding cognition as permeated by logics of social structure. I am interested in the social self, Neo-Pragmatism, and how institutions think. Applying critiques of power to socially distributed cognition, I strive to critically understand the role of other people in how we think, analyze and make choices.
