I am a Postdoctoral Teaching Fellow in Philosophy at Utah State University. My primary interests are early modern philosophy and philosophy of religion, with a focus on Locke’s religious epistemology. More broadly, I’m drawn to any and all questions at the intersection of philosophy and religion, across traditions and time periods. Some philosophers who continue to influence my thinking are Boethius, Locke, Spinoza, Kierkegaard, and Camus.

Some of my non-academic pursuits include: drinking lots of coffee, eating lots of pizza, rewatching Star Wars (original, prequel, and animated series) and The Matrix trilogy, playing the drums, listening to 2000s pop-punk, thrifting for used books, spending time with my better half and our dog Hannah, gaming online with friends, and visiting family back home whenever I can.
