My Focus
My research focuses on topics related to the philosophy of logic, mathematics, and ancient philosophy. I have written or am writing on topics related to ancient philosophy of mathematics and logic (like Aristotle’s position on infinity or the law of non-contradiction), the epistemology of logic (like C.S. Peirce’s philosophy of logic and pragmatist frameworks for theory choice in logic), and the philosophy of games (like the value of games in reasoning). I enjoy working on research projects with undergraduates on related topics, so please reach out if you are interested in pursuing undergraduate research at UMaine!
