I study the history of Ancient Greek and Roman ethical and political philosophy. My recent work has focused on questions of rule and judgement in Aristotle. Specifically, I am interested in the place of ruling in Aristotle’s account of learning and human well-being, and how the development of political expertise informs his view of judgement. I also maintain interests in contemporary ethical and political philosophy, including questions of democracy and egalitarianism.

Prior to joining the faculty, I was Lecturer in Political Theory and Wicklander Research Fellow at DePaul University. I am also a member of The London Centre for Ancient Philosophy (L-CAP).
