I am a Marie Curie Intra-European Research Fellow at NIP. My project is entitled The Many Kinds of Many: Pluralism about Properties and is funded by the 7th European Community Framework Programme. I am also the convener of the pilot Pluralism Project at NIP. Upon completion of my Marie Curie project in October 2013 I will take up post as a Lecturer in the Department of Philosophy at Aberdeen.

I was previously Government of Ireland Postdoctoral Fellow at University College Dublin from 2009-11, following an appointment as a Fixed-Term Lecturer, also at UCD, from 2008-9. Prior to this I did my undergraduate degree at the University of Kent, before going on to do an MLitt and a PhD at the University of St Andrews. I also spent time as a visiting PhD student at the University of Connecticut and the Australian National University.

My main research interests lie in the areas of Metaphysics, Philosophy of Language, Metaethics and Epistemology.

You can find copies of my papers and my CV at my academia.edu homepage.
