Call me Yang. I’m a writer and philosopher that grew up in, and still resides in, New York City. My areas of interest include the philosophy of religion, Continental philosophy, political theology, historical and contemporary religious practice in America, and what I call the 3 M’s: metaphysics, morality, and mimesis. After I finish my graduate studies, I plan on being (or becoming?) a philosophy professor, as well as a public intellectual.

In my spare time, I can usually be found reading philosophy or literary fiction while I procrastinate on the several projects I'm simultaneously working on, all while I affect and am affected by the divine in every moment.

I am open to requests for book reviews, guest essays, and podcast appearances.
