Picture

​I was born in Chicago and grew up in Nashville, Spartanburg (SC), and Gainesville (FL).  After high school, I moved to New York City to attend Columbia University and graduated from there with a BA in philosophy in 1997.  I stayed in New York for another twelve years after that, first as a guitarist and songwriter in the band  Elk City (the first two albums), and then doing my PhD in philosophy at the CUNY Graduate Center.  

My first academic position, from 2009 to 2011, was as a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Philosophy-Neuroscience-Psychology program at Washington University in St. Louis.  I have been a faculty member at in the philosophy department at the University of Cincinnati since 2011, where I received tenure in 2017.  

While my training is as a philosopher, some of my reserach involves designing and carrying out psychological experiments.  In some of that work, I have collaborated with speech and language pathologists and psychologists to assess the cognitive impact of a loss of inner speech in people with aphasia. 

In my free time I like to play soccer, make up songs, travel with family, and obsess about the Chicago Cubs.  ​
