I
am Assistant Professor of Philosophy at the
University of Wyoming, where I have been since
receiving my PhD in 2003 from the
University of Colorado, Boulder
under George Bealer. My
current research interests concern the
metaphysics of various epistemically important concepts (e.g., belief,
intuition, concepts and conceptions), the diachronic/modal dimensions of
knowledge, and the relationship between linguistic and philosophical
analysis.
What I'm up to:
UT Methodology Workshop.
Symposium on metaepistemology. August 12th-16th.
Bellingham
Summer Philosophy Conference. August 3rd-7th.
Guest editor for a
Synthčse
volume featuring articles from the conference.
Co-editing with
John Bengson a
volume of papers on know-how. Tentatively titled Know How: Essays on
Knowledge, Mind and Action, it will feature papers by Julia Annas,
David Braun, Brit Brogaard, Yuri Cath, Michael Devitt, Jennifer Hornsby,
Alva Noë, Ian Rumfitt, Jonathan Schaffer, Paul Snowdon, Ernest Sosa, Jason Stanley,
Michael Tye, Timothy Williamson and, of course, John and I.
