I'm an assistant professor at the Department of Philosophy at the University of Nottingham, having previously worked at Durham and Leeds.
My current work is on philosophical character theory, misanthropy, illness and suffering, epistemic virtues and vices in science, and some themes in Buddhist and Classical Chinese philosophy.
I currently teach Buddhist and Chinese philosophy, character ethics, and the philosophy of chronic somatic illness.
I'm also active in efforts to improve the intellectual and demographic diversity of philosophy. To that end, I contribute to The Philosopher's Cocoon and The Deviant Philosopher and serve on the Executive Committee of the British Philosophical Association.
