I am Professor of Philosophy at New York University Abu Dhabi, where I moved several years ago from the University of Wisconsin, Madison. I am also the co-Editor in Chief of the Journal of Ethics and Social Philosophy.  

I am broadly interested in questions about agency, epistemology, rationality, and normativity. I've written about self-knowledge, weakness of will and self-control, the nature of intention and its relationship to belief, and what we should believe about our own intentional actions, among other things.

The brilliant Jennifer Morton and I have a new book coming out! Striving: The Agency and Epistemology of Uncertain Pursuits will be published by Oxford University Press in 2027. My book Philosophy of Action:  A Contemporary Introduction was published with Routledge Press in 2021.
