Much of my writing, including Thought in Action: Expertise and the Conscious Mind (Oxford University Press, 2016), Continuous Improvement: Intertwining Mind and Body in Athletic Expertise (Oxford University Press, 2022), which is co-authored with the psychologists John Toner and Aidan Moran, and Philosophy of Mind: A Very Short Introduction (Oxford University Press, 2022), addresses one or more of the paroemion quintet of mind, matter, metaphysics, mathematics and movement. My research has been supported by two National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) Research Fellowships, an NEH Summer Stipend, and an American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS) Ryskamp Research Fellowship, and I am currently working on a book, tentatively titled Things that Matter: Metaphysics in a Post-Physical World, which Oxford University Press believes will be completed any day now.
I am a professor of philosophy at the University of Notre Dame, a co-founder of Logos Dance Collective, and an ailurophile. My favorite food is Shojin-ryori.
