About
I am currently a Research Fellow at the Oxford Uehiro Centre for Practical Ethics (part of the Oxford Faculty of Philosophy), and at the Oxford Institute for Science and Ethics. I'll be taking up a permanent lectureship at Bristol University in September 2012.
Previously I was at the University of Cambridge (King's College), where I was doing a PhD in philosophy at the History and Philosophy of Science Department. I did my undergraduate work at Oberlin College, in politics (environmental political theory) and I did an MPhil in Political Thought and Intellectual History at Cambridge.
I am also a trustee and director for Forest Farm Peace Garden (FFPG), a community gardening project based in East London, which my friends and I set up in 2003 with a grant from the Compton Foundation of San Francisco. The project aims to promote health, wellbeing, environmental sustainability and intercultural awareness. We work especially with refugees and asylum seekers, mental health service users, local probation teams, local wildlife trusts, and local volunteers. We are regenerating a few acres of land, and have built raised vegetable beds, ponds, willow domes, a wind turbine, a carpentry area, an apiary and planted lots of trees!
In philosophy my main interests are in normative ethics, applied ethics, philosophy of science, philosophy of statistics, decision theory, philosophy of economics, and political philosophy.
