My research focuses on intersections between philosophy, religion, and culture in twentieth-century French phenomenology, existentialism, and feminism—especially in the works of Simone de Beauvoir and Jean-Paul Sartre. I work on ethical formation, philosophical and religious ethics, and questions of methodology, form, and content. With respect to the latter I am particularly interested in literature as a medium through which questions about ethics and meaning are explored.

Before joining Regent’s Park College I taught at King’s College London, the University of Hertfordshire, and St Peter’s College, Oxford. I am a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, an Associate Fellow of the Higher Education Academy, and Treasurer of the UK Sartre Society.
