I am a political philosopher at the University of Western Australia. My principal research specialisations are in democracy and climate justice, though I also have interests in workplace justice, egalitarianism, the history of political thought, collective action, global justice, ethics, and meta-ethics. At UWA, I am also a Fellow of the Public Policy Institute, Co-ordinator of both the Bachelor of Philosophy, Politics, and Economics, and the Bachelor of Human Rights, and Chair of Philosophical Studies in the School of Humanities.
With my friend and colleague Nin Kirkham, I am also the co-creator and co-host of the Human Rights in Global Perspective Podcast, available here.
When I’m not writing or teaching, I love to be outdoors cycling or hiking.
