​I'm employed by the University of York to teach and research philosophy. I work mostly on metaphysics and the philosophy of time. My current research project explores dynamism in metaphysics.

I have written a book on my preferred theory of time, presentism. For more on my research (and links to published work), see here or see my profile on PhilPeople or Google Scholar.

Away from York, I am President of the Philosophy of Time Society, a Senior Member of the Centre for Philosophy of Time, and I sit on the Steering Committee for the International Association for Philosophy of Time.

In Spring 2025, I was a Visiting Fellow in the Department of Philosophy at Durham University. In Summer 2023, I was a Visiting Researcher at the Centre for Time, University of Sydney. In Spring 2022,  I was a Visiting Assistant Professor in the Department of Philosophy & Linguistics at MIT.
