Joined UCL: 1st Sep 2000

Research summary

I am interested in the relationship between reality and our representations of it in thought and language. My main concern is to understand the consequences of the fact that our characterisation of this relationship is itself a representation of reality in thought or language. I work in areas of epistemology, metaphysics and the philosophies of mind and language that address these problems.

Teaching summary

I have taught courses in epistemology, metaphysics and logic, and on Ludwig Wittgenstein's philosophy.
