MAP International
I served on the MAP International leadership team from 2018-2021, including serving as Co-Director of MAP in 2020-21. MAP is a graduate student led non-profit dedicated to removing barriers to participation for minoritized philosophers. We have 170+ chapters around the world. Besides the day-to-day tasks, here are some of the highlights of my organizing with MAP.

Besides the day-to-day tasks, here are some of the highlights of my organizing with MAP.
- I co-organized and served as a panelist at the MAP Session on "Countering Bullying, Harassment, and Microaggressions” at Eastern APA 2021. My panel contribution is titled "Microaggressions (or, Racialized Epistemic Violence) in Progressive Spaces." Presentation draft available upon request.
- I successfully spearheaded MAP's first fundraising campaign, which more than doubled MAP's annual operational budget.
- I co-authored a MAP report on service work distribution and compensation for graduate students.
- I drafted the initial project proposal for MAP's Inter-Campus Peer Mentorship Program.
- With Milana Kostic, I am currently (2021-22) co-administering a UCHRI multi-campus working group grant for the MAP Californian Consortium, aiming to facilitate regional collaboration among MAP chapters in California.
- I organized and chaired a MAP special session at the PSA2020/2021, on "Race and Racial Justice."
