BA (DePaul) Philosophy, German
PhD (Toronto) Philosophy
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. 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 have acted for over 10 years 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. My current research involves
the philosophy of Emmanuel Levinas and I act as program
co-ordinator for Continental Philosophy in a Jewish
Context, an affiliated society of the Society for
Phenomenological and Existential Philosophy. My most
recent publication is on the phenomenology of prayer.
