My focus is on Hume’s positions on argumentation and on the processes by which beliefs are generated and stabilized through argumentation, as well as the ways in which we can leverage an improved understanding of these processes to accelerate philosophical progress. Over the past two years, I was based at UCD and funded by a grant from the Irish Research Council. This year, I teach at UNC Chapel Hill, where I got my undergraduate degree. My doctoral dissertation, which I defended in 2019 at Notre Dame, concerned Hume’s account of knowledge. I also have interests in philosophical and pedagogical applications of artificial intelligence.
