​About Me
My research centers around issues of linguistic meaning, metaphysics, and logic—especially the relationship between meaning and actual language use. Currently, I am working to develop and expand on the pragmatic ideas of F. C. S. Schiller (1864-1937), principally with regard to meaning and logic.

Aside from the specific focus of my research, I strive to be something of a general practitioner of philosophy (much in the way of the classical Pragmatists), maintaining an emphasis in my particular interests while theorizing across metaphysics, epistemology, metaethics, ethics, politics, and logic.


My influences include: J.S. Mill, Hume, Nietzsche, Wittgenstein, C.S. Peirce, F.C.S. Schiller, William James, Dewey, A.J. Ayer, W.V.O. Quine, Mario Bunge, George Englebretsen, Paul Thagard, Mark Johnson, Paul Horwich, Cornel West, François Recanati, and J. Davidson Frame.
