Areas of interest
- I'm especially interested in ethics, reasons and rationality, and decision theory, especially when they involve vagueness and/or the environment.
- I’m also interested in very sceptical views in metaethics, such as global normative nihilism.
Postgraduate supervision
- I'm happy to take on PhD students in the above areas.
Teaching
- I mostly teach ethics of various kinds, but also some mediaeval philosophy and occasionally logic. In 2026-7 I’m introducing a feminist philosophy module.
Research centres and groups
- Reading Ethics and Political Philosophy (REAPP)
