I am Associate Professor in the Department of Philosophy at Brandeis University. My main research interests lie at the intersection of philosophy of mind, ethics and epistemology. I am also interested in philosophy of action, the nature of reasons, the philosophy of perception, existentialism and the history of modern philosophy. I received my Ph.D. from U.C. Berkeley in 2007 and my A.B. from Harvard in 2001.
