Philosophically, I am interested in ethics, metaphysics,
philosophy of mind, and early modern philosophy. My recent
ethical thinking has focused on numbers skepticism (not what it
sounds like) and moral realism. Recent metaphysical
thinking has focused on the nature of the imagination and its
uses in philosophy. Recent thinking in philosophy of mind
has focused on imaginability arguments there and also on
parallels between questions in the philosophy of mind and
metaethics. I haven't thought much about early modern
philosophy recently, but I am interested in early modern views on
the mind-body problem plus rationalist metaphysics.
I teach or will teach courses in all the areas I am interested
in. I am currently teaching the intro ethics course in the
honors college and an intermediate-level class on the morality of
killing things.
Non-philosophically, I am interested above all in baseball.
