Background
I've been at Edinburgh since 2011 (initially as a British Academy postdoctoral fellow, before later being appointed as lecturer). I previously taught at Exeter College, Oxford.

Undergraduate teaching
In 26/27 I will be teaching

Open to PhD supervision enquiries?
Yes
Areas of interest for supervision
I am happy to supervise projects in practical philosophy (broadly construed to encompass metaethics, normative ethics, applied ethics, value theory more generally, and the history of these). I am especially keen to supervise projects related to well-being in some way.
