I am assistant professor of practical philosophy. I am PI of the Agency as Experience and Capacity project, and also involved in the STN Climate-Nudge project. My research is centred on how biological causation situated in rich social environments fundamentally shapes our basic agentive processes of decision-making and control.

I teach in ethics, philosophy of AI, and associated topics.
