About
I am a Post-Doctoral Fellow in Business Ethics in the John Chambers College of Business & Economics at West Virginia University where I am housed in the Department of General Business and the Kendrick Center for an Ethical Economy. Simultaneously, I am a PhD Candidate in the Department of Philosophy at the University of Calgary.
My research interests are broadly in the philosophy of money and finance. My research includes work in business ethics, political philosophy, and the philosophy of economics. In particular, I have been interested in the ethics of banking, the moral limits of markets, and the ontology of money. My dissertation is on normative dimensions of central bank independence.
During my doctoral studies I participated in two visiting semesters. The first was as a Visiting Scholar at the Georgetown Institute for the Study of Markets and Ethics at Georgetown University. The second was as a Visiting Student Researcher in the Department of Philosophy and a Graduate Student Fellow in the Centre for Global Studies at the University of Victoria.
My doctoral research is currently funded by a SSHRC Canada Graduate Scholarship.
I proudly hail from Galt, Ontario.
