I am a philosopher with interests in the history of philosophy, language, action theory, moral philosophy, and applied ethics. I am currently a Postdoctoral Researcher in Global Mental Health Ethics in the University of Oxford Psychiatry Department, where I work with the Neuroscience, Ethics and Society (NEUROSEC) research group. I am working on the ethics of psychiatric genomics, and I have a particular interest in the philosophical issues surrounding informed consent, engagement between the philosophy of psychiatry and disability studies, and the ethics of cell line creation.
I completed my PhD in Philosophy at Durham University in 2024, with a thesis on 'Action and Necessity: Wittgenstein's "On Certainty" and the Foundations of Ethics'. I am currently developing papers on the history of early analytic philosophy, the nature of the practical syllogism, and approaches to ethics inspired by Wittgenstein, Anscombe, von Wright, and Thompson. I am particularly interested in the possibility of finding a middle way between realistic and pragmatist approaches to ethics.
