I teach philosophy and mathematics at Fitchburg State University and Mount Wachusett Community College.

My research in practical epistemology focuses on the value of knowledge, the epistemic norms that guide deliberation, and the relationship between what to think and what to do. I’m especially interested in legal epistemology and how evidence is used in the courtroom.

Previously, I served as a Visiting Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Oberlin College and Bates College, a Postdoctoral Associate at MIT, and a Visiting Fellow at the Australian National University.

I completed my PhD in Philosophy at MIT and a BA in Mathematics and Philosophy from UMass Amherst.

Outside of academia, I enjoy playing the cello and spending time in nature.
