I'm an Assistant Professor
in the Department of Philosophy at Syracuse University. My dissertation
(MIT, 2002) was about whether social norms can constrain what a speaker
can communicate. My main philosophical
interests are in philosophy of language (assertion, context-dependence),
feminist philosophy (silencing, subordination), and philosophy of law (free
speech). Elsewhere on this site you can find:
Papers Page – My current work on
silencing, free speech, testimony and assertion.
Teaching – Selected syllabi.
Photos – Photos of my friends and my favourite
places in the world (coming soon).
Links I Like – Timesinks on the internet.
Stuff – Odds and ends (coming soon).
