Research interests
My primary research interests are in the philosophy of mathematics, the philosophy of language, and metaphysics. I focus especially on mathematical structuralism, abstractionism, and issues surrounding singular reference and singular thought. I also maintain active research projects on vagueness, indeterminacy, and the metaphysics of abstract objects, as well as the metaphysics of gender.
