His research focuses on philosophy of action and ethics, examining agential knowledge, skill theory, and virtue epistemology. He critiques intellectualist approaches to know-how and develops alternative conceptions rooted in Aristotelian rational capacities. His work also spans moral psychology, self-consciousness, and historical analysis of Aristotle, Kant, and Wittgenstein.
Recent publications analyze Anscombe's theories of practical inference, the metaphysical structure of basic actions, and the epistemic role of teaching versus testimony. His CV and full paper archive are available online at his personal website.
