Hi! I am a Professor of Philosophy at California State University, San Bernardino.
My research specialties are the history and philosophy of science (with a special interest in astronomy and cosmology), early modern philosophy (especially David Hume), and philosophy of religion (atheism and anti-apologetics).
I have taught a wide range of courses including critical thinking, symbolic logic, introduction to philosophy, philosophy of religion, ethics, bioethics, early modern philosophy, rationalism, David Hume, philosophy of science, evidential reasoning, philosophy of cosmology, environmental philosophy, science and the modern world, philosophy and science fiction, video games and philosophy, and (my favorite) a one-off, co-taught Honors course on the comet ISON as it was approaching the sun in 2013.
From 2007-2016, I worked in various administrative roles, mostly centered around student success.
I’m also an award-winning craft beer writer, a racer of sailboats, and a photographer.
I live in San Diego with my wife and step-daughter.
It is a good life.
