I have two primary aims in teaching. One is to help students discover the beauty and value of philosophy. Another is to help students cultivate the skills to read, write, and think critically. When possible and relevant, I also incorporate classical works from non-Western philosophical traditions to help students realize that philosophy is a global phenomenon.
