I am a philosopher at University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in the Program for Public Discourse and the Department of Philosophy, where I am a Teaching Assistant Professor.
My research and writing focuses on Ancient Greek and Roman Philosophy, especially Aristotle’s conceptions of mind, soul, and life, and their place within the Greek and Roman philosophical tradition. I am also interested in the influences of these conceptions throughout the history of philosophy, and their relevance for contemporary philosophy of mind, cognitive science, and moral psychology. I also have a strong interest in the philosophy of film, film theory, and the presentation of philosophy through film. Finally, I incorporate these disparate interests in an overarching interest in philosophy as a “way of life”, especially (but not exclusively) as this came about in the Greco-Roman world.
