Academic bio

I’m a moral philosopher who loves politics, economics, and formal techniques.

In 2019, I received my PhD from MIT. After two years at Monash University and five at UNC Chapel Hill, I started my current job as Senior Lecturer at the ANU.

My first book was Ethical Theory (Routledge, 2024) with Sarah Stroud. Next up is What We Owe to Ourselves (OUP), which argues for a “self–other symmetric” theory of interests, rights, and supererogation.

On this site, you’ll find my:
