I teach and do research in philosophy. I work on problems in traditional and social epistemology, and philosophy of science, including epistemological problems that arise in the practice of contemporary paleontology. Currently, I'm a visiting research scholar in the Philosophy Department at Baylor University. As of Fall 2019, I will be an Assistant Professor in the Philosophy Department at Gonzaga University. I earned my PhD in the Philosophy Department at Boston College. I hold a BA in Philosophy from the School of Politics, Philosophy, and Public Affairs at Washington State University and am a proud graduate of the Running Start program at Wenatchee Valley College.
My career has given me the opportunity to travel around the country and the world, and to spend my work time talking to students about questions that matter. When I'm not teaching my dog, Beowulf, the finer points of logic and paleontological research, I enjoy rooting for the Washington State Cougars from afar.
