About
I am currently a GRIPP Postdoctoral Fellow at the Centre for Research in Ethics at the University of Montreal (CRÉUM), as well as a Course Lecturer in the Department of Philosophy at McGill University.
In the summer of 2011, I finished my DPhil degree in Philosophy at the University of Oxford. My thesis, entitled “Human Rights and the Problem of Ethnocentrism”, defended an epistemological interpretation of the problem of ethnocentrism, and suggested two limited respects in which ethnocentrism can be avoided in moral argument. It was supervised by Professors Jeremy Waldron, John Tasioulas, and Roger Crisp.
In the Fall of 2012, I will resume my post as a Course Lecturer at McGill University. And, in the Winter of 2013, I will take up a Visiting Scholarship at the Department of Philosophy at New York University.
Although I work mainly in the philosophy of human rights, I also have research interests in related areas of moral and political philosophy, including theories of liberalism, toleration, cosmopolitanism, and moral epistemology.
