My philosophical interests mainly lie in practical philosophy, understood broadly to include the philosophy of action, ethics, and moral psychology. I’m also interested in human subjectivity (and intersubjectivity). On the historical side, the works of Plato, Aristotle, and Kant are of particular interest to me. My favorite philosopher has long been, and continues to be, G.E.M. Anscombe.
