I am currently a visiting assistant professor of philosophy at the University of Missouri. In 2008, I earned my M.A. in philosophy under Matthew McGrath and Peter Markie. In 2010, I earned my PH.D., and my committee was composed of Peter Markie (adviser), Matthew McGrath (2nd reader), John Greco, Andrew Melnyk, and Paul Weirich. My dissertation won University of Missouri’s Distinguished Dissertation Award in a campus-wide competition.
My primary research focuses are in epistemology and metaphysics, and I also have interests in ethics, logic, and philosophy of religion.
