I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Philosophy at Purdue University. I am also an area editor for the journal Ergo.
I work on the philosophy of social cognition, a subfield at the intersection of the philosophy of cognitive science, moral psychology, and social philosophy. I am especially interested in questions about social norms and theory of mind.
I'm writing a book with Dan Kelly for Oxford University Press. It's called The Book of Norms: What They Are, Where They Come From, and Whether We Can Change Them.
