I work on topics in moral psychology, including self-knowledge and self-opacity, emotions, and imagination, and I also work on film. My thinking is typically grounded in Kant and Freud, and I've also written about James Baldwin, W.E.B Du Bois, Stanley Cavell, Iris Murdoch, and Bernard Williams. I'm currently writing a book tentatively titled Opaque Animals: Agency, Ethics, and Experience. (background photo from Douglas Sirk's All That Heaven Allows)
