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. Beginning in August, I will be a Teaching Assistant Professor housed in the same places.
My research interests are broadly in the philosophy of money and finance. In particular, I am interested in the ethics of banking, the moral limits of markets, and the ontology of money. I have also done some work on values in science.
In I defended my dissertation in June, 2026 in the Department of Philosophy at the University of Calgary. There, my doctoral research was funded by a SSHRC Canada Graduate Scholarship.
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.
I proudly hail from Galt, Ontario.
