Hello,

I'm Anna-Bella Sicilia, a PhD candidate at the University of Arizona.

I work primarily in ethics and feminist philosophy. My dissertation, which I am completing under the supervision of Mark Timmons, is about interpersonal dependence - namely, what it means to say "I'm depending on you" and why that matters.

I am visiting UNC Chapel Hill during the 2024-2025 academic year.

Before grad school, I completed my BA at the University of Maryland. While not philosophizing, I am probably reading science fiction, baking a pie, or at a figure drawing class.

About my name: It's Anna-Bella. (It's not "Anna".) You can spell it correctly with or without the hyphen. My friends and colleagues mainly call me AB.

My pronouns are she/her.
