My research interests broadly include metaphysics, ontology, language, and their various intersections, for example theories of meaning, truth-making, and material adequacy. As such, I've become increasingly interested in grounding and other topics of "formal ontology", such as mereology, mereotopology, the philosophy of location, and mapmaking.

My current research primarily concerns the nature of composition, identity, composition-as-identity, many-one identity, and plural logic. I'm interested in how concept-relative or count-relative accounts of cardinality ascription can used to make non-trivial many-one identity claims plausible.

I'm also interested in the exegesis of both early and later Wittgenstein.
