I am a philosopher at the Australian National University in Canberra, Australia, based in the Fenner School of Environment & Society (and with affiliations at ANU's School of Philosophy and InSpace). I work mainly on applied ethics (especially ethics of technology), value theory, and public policy. Before coming to ANU, I was a Senior Lecturer in PPE at the University of Liverpool, and a Laurance S. Rockefeller Fellow at Princeton University (2019-2020).

My new monograph, Lunacy: Ten False Promises of the New Space Age, will be published by Princeton University Press in 2026.

I have published over twenty academic articles in journals like The Journal of Philosophy, Ethics, and Philosophical Studies. For a full list of articles and downloadable access, click here. 

I also write for popular media, including pieces in The New York Times, The Guardian, and The Sydney Morning Herald.
