about

I’m a PhD student in Philosophy at Peterhouse, Cambridge. Before that, I did an MA (Hons) in Philosophy at Edinburgh, then an MPhil in Philosophy at Cambridge (also at Peterhouse).

At Cambridge, I’ve been involved in running the graduate logic conference for a couple of years (2026), and I’m coconvener of the Serious Metaphysics Group. I also teach a bit. At Edinburgh, I was heavily involved in the wonderful Edinburgh University Philosophy Society.

I grew up in Carlisle near the Anglo-Scottish border, known for biscuits, reivers, and the Royal Navy advert. (It should be better known for its fascinating cathedral and nationalised pubs.) I am half English and half Scottish.

Besides philosophy, I like music, pubs and beer, and cat photos.
