Hi! I'm a student of psychology and philosophy living in New York City. I am a long-time user but very new editor of Wikipedia.

In psychology, my interests include:

  • The development of altruism, cooperation, and other pro-social behaviors
  • The biological bases of normal and abnormal behavior
  • Whether the existence and workings of human consciousness can ever be explained scientifically
  • The psychological sequelae of human rights-related trauma (usually torture), and their treatment
  • The ethical implications of strict adherence to a given theoretical orientation in a therapeutic setting
  • The border between clinical and subclinical symptomology, especially in the personality disorders

In philosophy, I'm most interested in epistemology and philosophy of science. I identify closely with the philosophy of David Hume.
