I am currently Visiting Professor of Philosophy at the University of Virginia and the E. B. McFarlin Professor of Philosophy at the University of Tulsa. I have previously held appointments at the University of Chicago, the University of South Carolina, and Universität Leipzig.
My research focuses on the intersection of ancient Greek natural philosophy and metaphysics with an emphasis on the works of Aristotle. It explores perennial questions about the nature of life and the soul, the role of scientific inquiry in the acquisition of knowledge, the principles that govern the natural world, and the ways in which our specific nature determines the good toward which we aim in living a human life.
In addition to this main area of research, I have secondary projects (and occasionally publish) in the philosophy of perception and mind, metaphysics, the philosophy of action, and the history of philosophy more generally.
