About
I'm a postdoctoral research fellow and convener of the Self-Knowledge pilot project at the Northern Institute of Philosophy at the University of Aberdeen. I did my PhD at the University of Texas at Austin, where I was supervised by Mark Sainsbury. Before Austin I was an undergraduate and a masters student in the philosophy department at the University of St Andrews. I work mostly on issues in epistemology, philosophy of language and, increasingly, philosophy of mind. My main research topics just now include: knowledge, justification, and the relationship between them; scepticism of various sorts; assertion and other speech acts; and challenges to the epistemic distinctiveness of self-knowledge from philosophy and cognitive science.
