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

My current research focuses on medieval and early modern debates between the Latin West and Byzantine East on divine causality. I am working on a monograph entitled, From the Father Alone: The Anti-unionist Works of St Mark of Ephesus on the Procession of the Holy Spirit, which is the first ever Greek-English translation of a number of St Mark of Ephesus's anti-unionist works on the procession of the Holy Spirit.
