In the spring of 2008 I completed a Ph.D in the department of philosophy at UNC - Chapel Hill. I am now a post-doc in the  Cognitive Evolution Laboratory at Harvard University; and, beginning in the Fall of 2008, I will also be a Research Associate at the Center for Cognitive Studies at Tufts University

My current philosophical research focuses on the coordination and integration of cognitive mechanisms in the solving of complex representational tasks. On the basis of this research, I am developing a book length argument for the claim that some groups, as such, have genuinely cognitive states.

I am also engaged in collaborative and experimental work with Marc Hauser, and a number of other people at the cognitive evolution lab; we are investigating the structure of the cognitive mechanisms required for making moral judgments.  If you would like to volunteer, please check out the moral sense test.

For other projects that I am currently working on, please see my 'papers' page.
