I am an Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Creighton University. In the fall I am teaching Philosophical Ideas and the Honors Foundational Sequence. My research program focuses on Aristotle’s overlooked ethical work the Eudemian Ethics, arguing that it defends a foundationalist approach to ethics which justifies ethical claims by reasoning from ethical first principles. This approach has consequences for whether Aristotle is a virtue ethicist, ethical evaluations across cultures, contemporary debates about ethical motivation, and the relation between ethical inquiry and scientific inquiry.
