Hi, I'm Tamara! 

I am Assistant Professor of Philosophy at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities.

My research in feminist philosophy focuses on the ethics and moral psychology of resisting oppression. I am particularly interested in the normative reasons victims have for (and against) resisting their oppression and how conditions of oppression shape what it means to live a good and meaningful life. 

I completed my Ph.D. at UNC Chapel Hill in 2019 under the supervision of Susan Wolf, Thomas E. Hill, Jr., and Bernard Boxill. I earned my B.A. in philosophy at the American University of Beirut in Lebanon.  

In 2016, I received UNC's Tanner Award for Excellence in Undergraduate Teaching.
