About
What to say .......... I am one of many PhD graduates looking for permanent work. I have studied phenomenology for most of my academic life (since 1998), with emphasis on and attention to the work of Adolf Reinach. Presently, my projects focus on the work of Hedwig Conrad-Martius and her student Eberhard Ave-Lallemant. But that is not to say that I only know about phenomenology. My philosophical interests are varied and comprehensive, and I like them that way. In addition to Phenomenology, I enjoy the work of Kant (yes, i said 'enjoy') and a few other German Idealists, as well as that of early modern thinkers like Leibniz and Hume, and I can add here existentialism (Camus, Beauvoir, Sartre), ancient Greek philosophy, and the entire work of Bolzano. I began my university education as a psychology major, and several of my present interests relate to that (e.g., Descriptive Psychology of Franz Brentano and Theodor Lipps). Towards the fringe of philosophy, I am a huge fan of Lewis Carroll, Tim Burton films, Hitchcock films, and the poetry of T. S. Eliot.
