Welcome to my home page. I’m Professor of Philosophy at California State Polytechnic University, Pomona (more colloquially known as Cal Poly Pomona). My research is principally in ethics, with particular emphases on suicide, punishment, Kant’s ethics, moral dilemmas, and moral psychology. I’ve recently completed a book manuscript on philosophical issues in suicide for Broadview Press. I’m also a contributor to two blogs: PEA Soup, a forum for philosophical ethics, and In Socrates’ Wake, a blog on teaching philosophy. I begin a five-year term as the editor of the journal Teaching Philosophy in 2011. I’m also a member of the American Philosophical Association Committee on Public Philosophy.
