I am a philosopher working primarily in metaphysics and philosophy of science. I am especially interested in fundamentality, explanation, probability, laws, time and causation.

As of January 2023, I am an Assistant Professor at UC Berkeley. I did my PhD at Rutgers, New Brunswick, advised by Jonathan Schaffer and Ted Sider. My dissertation, ‘Essays on Metaphysical Explanation’, is here, and my CV is here.
