I teach courses in existentialism, recent continental philosophy, and philosophy of religion. I also teach CORE 152: The Challenge of Modernity.
Continental Philosophy and the Philosophy of Religion
I'm interested in the relationship between philosophy and the Christian faith, the viability of naturalism as a world view, how Nietzsche has influenced Foucault and Heidegger, and the ways in which existentialism is relevant in contemporary philosophy and modern life.
