I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Philosophy at St. Olaf College in Northfield, Minnesota.  My work focuses on epistemological issues that arise in political, social, and scientific contexts.  I also have research interests in American Pragmatism, particularly the work of John Dewey. 

I started at St. Olaf in the fall of 2010 after spending a year as a Post-Doctoral Fellow at Rutgers University in the Center for Cultural Analysis.  I completed my Ph.D. in 2009 in the Columbia Department of Philosophy.  My dissertation research focused on the role of scientific inquiry in democratic society.

On this website I have posted information about my research, samples of my music, and a current vitae [pdf].
