My Personal AOI

My philosophical interests essentially cluster around mental disorder, time, and phenomenology.

To be more specific, I am interested in the role internal time-consciousness and its abnormalities play in the course of mental illness. I take a life-span perspective
influenced by work in developmental psychopathology. Internal time-consciousness cannot be conceived of in a purely local way, but must be contextualized on the horizon of age.
Age and developmental stages add bulk and meaning to the progression of time for human beings. Age, on my view, is a biopsychosocial-phenomenological fact that can only be
understood at the joint of various 3rd-person sciences and a 1st-person philosophy, ergo I am somewhat of a naturalist.

Below is a list of my interests, in bullet-point form
