My interests are in the history of philosophy, specifically continental philosophy in the 19th and early 20th Centuries. I specialize in Kierkegaard, as well as the fields on which he had broad impact, namely Existentialism and Phenomenology. Alongside my historical scholarship, I am particularly intrigued by questions of performance, interaction, language and intentionality - all of which I am most fond of contemplating in reference to humor and comedy. I act as a commissioning editor for the Toronto-based, annual publication Alphabet City (co-published with MIT Press). I am also the author of comics, translations and have been active in the production of various independent films as a writer, actor and assistant director. I teach courses in metaphysics, existentialism, philosophy of religion and the history of philosophy.
