About Me
Welcome! I am currently a PhD candidate in the Department of Philosophy, Logic and Scientific Method at the London School of Economics. My work falls mostly at the intersection of philosophy of mind, the philosophy of science and meta-philosophy but I also have broader research interests within epistemology and ethics. I am currently working on a number of foundational issues which arise within consciousness science when one attempts to study consciousness (both in the phenomenal sense and global states of consciousness) as a natural kind. More details on this research and recent publications can be found on my research page.
When I'm not doing philosophy, I love to travel, cook and eat (mostly many different kinds of pasta), take photographs (like those on this site), read bad science fiction and hike in the Yorkshire Dales (where I grew up).
