ABOUT ME


I am currently a Lecturer and Tutor for Admissions in the Philosophy Department at University College London. In October 2013, I will be taking up a new position as CUF Lecturer and Gabrielle Taylor Fellow at St. Anne's College, Oxford University.

I am also an Editor for Mind & Language and a consulting editor for Timing & Time Perception.

I am currently working on a number of projects in philosophy of mind and cognitive science. The largest of these is a book project working-titled, Our Experience of Time, for which I have been awarded a Leverhulme Research Fellowship for 2013/14.

For a taster of my recent work see this 10 min. TEDxUCL video, or listen to my recent Aristotelian Society Talk.
