I’m a political philosopher working on animal rights and the ethics of activism. My research explores the place of nonhuman animals within theories of justice. I’m interested in what humans owe other animals and in the ethics of animal rights activism.
I am Associate Professor of Political Theory at the University of Leicester and part of the Vegan Society’s Research Advisory Committee. In 2024, I was a Senior Fellow of the Forum Basiliense platform for interdisciplinary dialogue, University of Basel. Previously, I was also 30th Anniversary Research Fellow of the Society for Applied Philosophy. My work focusses on nonhuman animals in theories of justice and the ethics of animal rights activism. My book What are Animal Rights For? was published in 2023 by Bristol University Press.
