I’m about doing good philosophy and teaching philosophy well, with the aim of producing quality work rather than quantity: “slow” philosophy, if you will. I believe in preparing my students for whatever future they choose, and I am looking for students who understand that taking time and effort to learn is an investment in their future. Based on my experiences, those who do not understand this do not appreciate my teaching. > > Finally, I have a partner who is also an interdisciplinary philosopher (of mind).
