My name is Kathleen Hintikka (no relation (probably)). Most people call me Kat, so you can, too. I'm a graduate student in the department of Linguistics and Philosophy at MIT, and before coming to MIT I did my B.A in Philosophy at the University of Texas at Austin. My academic interests include feminist philosophy, particularly body politics and any/all intersections thereof, metaphysics, and philosophy of mind. Outside of the department, I am a competitive powerlifter, a horse mom, and a friend to dogs everywhere, but particularly my own.
