I research and write in the areas of 19th- and 20th-century European philosophy (especially Friedrich Nietzsche), ethics (including moral psychology), and environmental philosophy.
My work on Nietzsche focuses on his moral psychology and the problem of nihilism (especially affective nihilism) in his thought. My monograph on affective nihilism in Nietzsche is forthcoming with Palgrave Macmillan (July 2020).
I am also interested in Nietzsche's account of self-knowledge, agency, and personal transformation, the transformative potential of affectivity, and the socio-cultural mediation of affects.
In my environmental philosophy research, I analyze and critique "new conservationist" (neo-green) ideology and policy. This research has been published in Environmental Philosophy and in a conservation anthology. In my upcoming work, I describe potential Nietzschean contributions to contemporary environmental thought. This research is forthcoming in the Cambridge Critical Guide to Thus Spoke Zarathustra.
