I am a philosopher at Oxford. I work on the normative issues raised by international conflicts.

Currently, I am a DPhil candidate at Corpus Christi College (2022-). For the DPhil, I work with Jeff McMahan and Alex Kaiserman.

Previously, I was a non-stipendiary lecturer at Lady Margaret Hall, Lincoln College, and University College (2023-24). I have taught a range of papers in moral and political philosophy, including Ethics (Final), Practical Ethics (Final), Theory of Politics (Final and Prelim), and Moral Philosophy (Prelim). For the 2024-25 academic year, I do not plan to do any teaching.

Before the DPhil, I did a BPhil at Oxford (2020-22), a BA (Hons) at the Australian National University (2018-19), and a BA at the University of Sydney (2016-18). I worked with Jeff McMahan for the BPhil, and Seth Lazar for the BA (Hons). In 2023, I spent a term as an academic visitor at Warwick, where I worked with Victor Tadros and Patrick Tomlin.

Together with Joshua Pike, I co-edit the public philosophy section at PEA Soup.
