about me
I am Associate Professor of Philosophy at the Sage School of Philosophy, Cornell University.
My main research interests lie in the history of metaphysics and the history of philosophy of mind. Right now I'm particularly interested in problems surrounding idealism, intentionality, and panpsychism. My published work has focused on early modern philosophy, especially Spinoza, Cavendish, and Descartes, but I'm increasingly interested also in late 19th- and early 20th- century Idealism and phenomenology.
I am also the Editor-in-Chief of the Philosophical Review; a member of the Editorial Board for the Journal of the History of Philosophy; a Board Member of the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy as a co-editor for the 17th century; and the Spinoza editor for PhilPapers.

A mammoth book edited by me and Justin Steinberg, the Spinoza Cambridge Lexicon, is coming out from Cambridge in December 2024.
