I earned my Ph.D. with distinction in 2022 from the Department of Philosophy at Saint Louis University in Saint Louis, Missouri.  My dissertation, "Radically Connected: Ockham's Metaphysics of Efficient Causation," which was written under the direction of Susan Brower-Toland, focuses on the powers metaphysic of efficient causation in the thought of the fourteenth-century medieval scholastic, William of Ockham.

My primary research interests are in medieval and contemporary metaphysics, particularly perennial issues in analytic ontology concerning substances, powers, priority, dependence, and causality. My secondary research interests are in medieval and early modern debates between the Latin West and the Byzantine East surrounding divine causality.

My current research involves a number of translation projects.
