I am currently teaching philosophy courses at various colleges in Minnesota, and am looking for a permanent faculty appointment. I received a Ph.D. in Cognitive Science and an M.A. in Philosophy from the University of Minnesota — Twin Cities, as well as a B.A. in Philosophy and Arabic Language from the University of Wisconsin — Milwaukee.
My research is primarily focused on the relationship between classical Pragmatism and embodied cognitive science, especially with regard to conceptions of truth, language, and logic. Further interests include: Machine Metaethics, Nietzsche qua Pragmatist, Cognitive Anthropology, and issues in Philosophy of Science and Philosophy of Mind. I would also love to collaborate with cognitive scientists from other disciplines on articles or in a lab setting.
My dissertation, The Nature of Human Truths (2024), expounds on the thought of the classical Pragmatist, F.C.S. Schiller (d. 1937), and defends a perspectival theory of truth for the cognitive domain.
