My teaching aims to convince learners that they're already engaged in philosophical inquiry, and to show them how gaining a better grasp of philosophical tools assists them in their other pursuits.
Along these lines, I've designed & taught Introduction to Philosophy, Philosophy of Sex and Gender, Basic Logic, and Asian Philosophy courses.

I research knowledge. Particularly, whether we have it.
As a Pyrrhonian skeptic, I'm unsure. I argue in normative epistemology why being unsure might help our ends.
I also work on skepticism as it's emerged throughout the history of philosophy: especially, the Ancient & Hellenistic periods, Mahayana Buddhism, the Early Modern period, the German idealists, and 20th-century Continental philosophy. My dissertation is on the relationship of Fichte to skepticism, and I most recently published on the neo-Pyrrhonian Aenesidemus.
