About

I am a PhD student in the Department of Philosophy at the University of Notre Dame. My research interests lie primarily in ethics, social and political philosophy and philosophy of law.

I hold an M.A. in Philosophy from Brandeis University. Prior to Brandeis, I earned my J.D. from Seoul National University School of Law, and during my subsequent three years of mandatory military service as a Judge Advocate in the Republic of Korea Army, I concurrently pursued doctoral coursework in the philosophy of law at Seoul National University. I also hold a B.A. in Economics and International Relations from the same institution and remain a licensed attorney in South Korea.

This interdisciplinary background informs my approach to moral and political problems through the lens of non-ideal theory.
