My current research explores topics at the intersection of philosophy, literature and business ethics. I am particularly interested in Adam Smith's moral philosophy and the way it can be enriched by (and criticized through) the Victorian novel. I also trace the economic and moral phenomena that crop up in these 19th Century "literary case studies" to the 21st Century to critically engage issues related to gender in contemporary business narratives. 

At Tilburg University I primarily teach courses on the philosophical underpinnings of economic and business thinking. I also teach a course on Ethics for Artificial Intelligence. At previous institutions I have taught a wide range of interdisciplinary liberal arts courses in philosophical ethics and aesthetics. 

Before coming to Tilburg I worked as an Assistant Professor at Centre College, a liberal arts college in Kentucky, and as an Associate Professor at Babson College, a liberal arts business school near Boston.
