Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Bowling Green State University

I am an Assistant Professor in the Philosophy Department at Bowling Green State University. Before that I was a Research Assistant Professor in the Philosophy, Politics, and Economics program at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. I received my PhD in philosophy in 2013 from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. My main research interests are in ethical theory, metaphysics, and environmental ethics. I am particularly interested in the metaphysics of harm and the relationships between well-being, impersonal and personal value, causation, and time.
