I am Teaching Professor in Philosophy at Santa Clara University where I teach courses in Aesthetics, Ethics, Film, and Culture. My research focuses on the social and political dimensions of Kantian aesthetics. I work on issues regarding communication, exclusion, and community formation, especially as they relate to negative aesthetics (e.g., ugliness, disgust, the sublime). In 2018, I coached the Santa Clara University Ethics Bowl team to win the national title at the Intercollegiate Ethics Bowl competition.
