About me
About me
My current interests are mainly in the philosophy of time, the philosophy of mind, and the history of modern philosophy. Before joining UCR as an Assistant Professor of Philosophy, I completed a DPhil (PhD) in Philosophy at the University of Oxford. During my doctoral studies, I was a visiting researcher at the École normale supérieure in Paris for a year. I graduated with an M.A. in Philosophy from Tel Aviv University, and a B.A. in Philosophy and History from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
In my teaching, I aim to allow students to approach the fascinating questions of philosophy in a spirit of lively critical inquiry, and to develop an informed, independent perspective. At UCR, I teach introductory-level as well as intermediate and advanced-level courses in the history of philosophy, the philosophy of mind, metaphysics, and ethics.
