Research Interests
I work in ethics broadly construed, especially metaethics and moral psychology. I am fascinated by the nature of norms, meaning, mind and values. I approach these topics via empirical research and philosophical methods of logic and analysis. I also have interests in the philosophy of technology, animal ethics, ancient philosophy, metaphilosophy and David Hume.
