WELCOME. I'm currently an Associate Professor in the Sage School of Philosophy at Cornell University. (Henry Sage was an early benefactor; we're not all sages.) My academic work is primarily in Kant and early modern philosophy, but I'm also interested in epistemology, aesthetics, philosophy of religion , and, increasingly, food and animal ethics.
