I am a Career Development Fellow in Philosophy at Trinity College, Oxford, working on various philosophical issues surrounding humour, comedy and joking. I work at the intersection of Ethics, Aesthetics and Mind, thinking about the ethics of the sense of humour, and how engaging with comedy shapes the attention. I am also interested in the concept of joking from a Philosophy of Language perspective, as a way of achieving plausible deniability on the cheap, and sneaking in ideas under the radar.
