I'm a graduate student in the Philosophy Department at Rutgers. I specialize in the philosophy of language, philosophical logic, and formal semantics. My dissertation is on modality, with a focus on natural language. My committee consists of Thony Gillies (chair), Jeff King, and Ernie Lepore.

I'm married to fellow philosopher Heather Demarest. We have a seven-month-old son.

research interests
