I am currently Departmental Lecturer in Philosophy of Mind at the Faculty of Philosophy and St. Hilda's College, Oxford. I have previously held positions at Exeter College, Oxford; on the BUMP project at King's College London and Southampton; at the Centre for Philosophical Psychology, Antwerp; and at The Queen's College, Oxford. I received my PhD in Philosophy from University College London, a BPhil in Philosophy from Oriel College, Oxford, and a BA in Philosophy from King's College London.
My research interests are primarily in metaphysics and philosophy of mind, but extend to issues in epistemology, philosophy of biology, philosophy of logic & language and philosophical methodology. I am particularly interested in the connections between the nature of human beings and the nature of the human mind.
