Welcome
I am an assistant professor at the University of Connecticut, and also a member of the UConn Logic Group. Publications, presentations, online papers

Until August 2008, I was a postdoctoral research fellow of the Arché research centre of the University of St Andrews in Scotland.
My research interests lie mainly in the philosophy of logic and mathematics, but I am also interested in philosophical logic, metaphysics, philosophy of language, and philosophy of art.
Some topics that occupy my mind currently are inferentialism, logical consequence, ontological commitment, plural quantification, mereology, and the role of model theory in philosophy.
I am also part of a team that is translating Gottlob Frege’s Grundgesetze der Arithmetik into English. Some details about this project can be found here.
I received my Ph.D. from the University of St Andrews in 2006 for a thesis with the title ‘Second-order Logic: Ontological and Epistemological Problems’.
