Teaching Interests & Awards

I often teach courses in moral theory. But I also have teaching interests in applied ethics and social philosophy. For a comprehensive list of courses I've taught, see my CV.

You can find the K-State Philosophy Department's upcoming philosophy courses here.

In the Spring of 2021, I was the Arts and Sciences recipient of the Commerce Bank and W.T. Kemper Foundation Outstanding Undergraduate Teaching Award. I was also the Teaching and Learning Center's highlighted teacher of the month.
