I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Philosophy and the Assistant Director of Academic Affairs in the office of Graduate Education in the College of Arts, Sciences, and Engineering, at the University of Rochester.

I also have a long standing interest in the concept, value and practice of security.

Before coming to Rochester I was an Assistant Professor in Philosophy at Kansas State University. Before that, I was a Research Fellow in the Medicine, Ethics, Society and History unit at the University of Birmingham, and before that I completed my PhD at the School of Philosophy at the Australian National University.
