I am a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Theoretical Philosophy at the University of Greifswald.
I earned my Ph.D. in philosophy at the University of Arizona. Before that I received a BPhil in philosophy from Oxford University and a B.S. in physics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
I have a wide variety of philosophical interests, including epistemology, decision theory, metaphysics, action theory, philosophy of physics, normativity, and moral responsibility. My dissertation was on the nature of empirical justification.
