Bio

Before coming to Loyola, I taught in the 哲学系 at the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado. During the 2021-2022 academic year I was the Donald and Beverly Freeman Fellow at the US Naval Academy's Stockdale Center for Ethical Leadership. I have also been a Post-Doctoral Research Fellow at the University of Calgary in Calgary, Alberta and a Visiting Scholar at both the Yale University Center for Bioethics and the Hastings Center for Bioethics. I completed my doctorate at the University of Oxford (Magdalen College) under the supervision of Derek Parfit and Roger Crisp. While working on my doctorate, I was a Visiting Lecturer at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill and at the University of Reading in Reading, UK.

My primary areas of research are moral theory and applied ethics, especially the ethics of technology and just war theory, though my teaching interests include political philosophy, 法哲学, philosophy of mind and action, 女权主义哲学, and both decision and game theory.
